A parenting check list from 2.5 years back...

A post from the past


This is the post I wrote when B was 2.5 and today is almost 5. Its a reminder of what I was as a parent at that time. It makes me proud but also makes me realise the trails I lost and now I can get back to being that.


A parenting check list at the age 2.5 years

Things that I did that I am proud of -

  • Read to her, everyday, since I was 3 months pregnant.
  • Treating her with respect
  • Treating her as an individual
  • Going about life at her pace
  • Leaving her to play and play and play
  • Letting her choose her people
  • Not enrolling her in a school yet
  • Shedding inhibitions about behaving like a child in public
  • Respecting her yeses and nos.
Hopeful of continuing with them.
