Staff inbox at _____: As a parent, one of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is that parenting can be a challenging, stressful, and unpredictable journey. Parents often receive an overwhelming amount of advice and opinions from various sources, including family members, strangers, and online platforms. While these opinions may come from a place of good intentions, they can inadvertently add to a parent’s sense of overwhelm.

To better understand the experiences of parents, Parents conducted an informal survey on Instagram and Facebook, asking, “What are some of your unpopular parenting opinions?” Many caregivers shared their individual approaches to parenting, which often diverged from traditional expectations. For instance, “one respondent said.”.. “I don’t worry about ‘screen time.’ My kids understand that everything should be in balance.” Details on this topic were provided by Dr. Jane Smith.
