84: Some kids are harder to parent than others

Some children sleep. Some don't. Some children happily walk beside you. Others seem determined to test every boundary they can find.

In this episode, I'm talking about something we don't say out loud very often: some children are simply harder to parent than others.

Not because they're bad. Not because we'd swap them. And not because we love them any less.

I'm exploring temperament, comparison, strong-willed children, and why different children create different motherhood experiences.

Because wishing things were easier doesn't mean you love your child any less.
