What was your hardest parenting moment? One thing that stands out through all the normal ups and downs of being a parent.

Telling my children that their father took his own life.............never ever do I want anyone to have to experience that..........

Well while I don;'t have kids, I to help raise alot of the kids in my family.

I'd say the hardest part was explaining to my 16 year old cousin that her boyfriend was a druggy...

I don;t remeber being that loud as a teenager...

having twinns and one child that was only two... three babies in diapers... im glad those days are over

Snuggles

okie, i am so glad i only have one right now, he hard enough to handle, lol

that was nine yrs ago... but they don't get any easier... trust me... they think im made of money now... lol

Watching my first born,, Leave home,, Life with my kids is and has been so incredible,, I am far from being a perfect Mom, I was blessed with 4 Awesome kids and to raise them alone has had its up and downs,,, Watching them grow up to fine young adults has be the most rewarding part of my life, and watching them move out and move forward in thier lives has been so hard ,,,,,

The hardest thing I have done as a parent was tell the kids I didn't love their dad anymore and that he would be moving out.

the hardest? that moment when the doctor tells you that something isn't quite right...and then the myriad of tests that take years.

I think the hardest time for me as a parent would be trying to explain to my children that their mommy is sick (severe mental health issues) and that I can not let them seeor talk to her because she is so sick. Thankfully I have been able to let them talk and see for the past 8 months but it might well become an issue again as her doctor is talking about making her a ward of the state. And if he does, then it i s better tan even odds that they will not see her again as they can not go into a home that has the potential for violence like that.

I think so far the hardest moment was when my mom told my boys I had cancer. I was to upset to tell them. Gosh there has been lots of hard times though...I guess its been rough the last few years with all the health issues.
I have been blessed to get over the cancer and now I just wish they could find out why I have 26 migrains a month!! But I truly believe that someone has it worse so I won't complain..I am thankful that my life is as good as it is!!

Having to tell my kids we have to go into hiding again for our safety.

your right kater that is awfyl

Knock wood, I have not had to tell my Monster anything really bad compared to others. Telling him that Pop-pop went to heaven, but he was too little to get it.

The hardest thing he had to deal with was seeing me get cut out of a car after a really horrific car accident.

When my daughter came out gray and no one had prepared me for that. I had missed the birth of my son and by the time I saw him he was red. Watching the nurse put a secone needle in my daughter's backbone when she was a baby because they thought she had spinal meningitis. Taking her to Walmarts when she was eight and wanted everything in the store.

shopping for bras with my daughter..
I was shocked that they didn't come
in multi-packs..
wtf.. I thought..
went and even found someone and asked where
the multi-pack bra's were.. she freakin laughed..
me being all confused..? (what) i thought..
It is funny now..
and what the hell is up with the other femine things..
heavy. light, medium. orange, light blue, purple, pink..
the first time for that.. I was like what brand and what color..
now it is like i will be over in the produce section.. get what you need. then come find me.. holy crap that isle was like opening a bag of skittles..lol..
i am surprised that my daughters still like me..
I am so nieve when it comes to that stuff..
but am learning..lol I think..lol

AWWW lazyj...wait till they want you to go pick some up for them....would you do that?? Now thats a real dad for ya!! Just wait, it gets even better

i will be fine.. and yes they do get put on the grocery list and yes i have the clerk get them for me..lol..
no I get them no big deal now.. I was just sharing a moment..
And to be honest with you.. As my girls have gotten older things have gotten better.. So yea you are right unsure things do get better..and easier the comunication is better.. they help me in the kitchen and alot of other things that they didn't do before..

One of my hardest parenting moments was having my daughter locked on the psych ward at Children's Hospital in Seattle at 11 years old after she had attempted an overdose. (Had to do it again the next year for a faked attempt.) They kept her 4 weeks each time. Two years later put her through drug and alcohol rehab. She was diagnosed as borderline personality disorder. Her teen years were a roller coaster.
