“After college, I worked as an au pair. I was shocked to see people having family dinners and talking about how their day went, and that children’s answers were taken seriously instead of being ridiculed or ignored. I was shocked when my children’s father went out and asked them, “How are you doing?” ” he asked. ”
“I was shocked that parents were actually taking their kids to their favorite activities instead of activities that their own parents preferred. Shocked that parents were actually taking their kids to activities they liked, not activities that their parents preferred. “If you dance, sing, and run, the children will be happy.” Don’t make fun of them. I was shocked to learn about family movie nights. Parents don’t actually watch children’s movies with their kids and only turn on the ones they want to watch.
I was shocked that my father did most of the cooking, not because he didn’t have a wife, but because my father actually loved cooking and was very affectionate towards his wife. I was so shocked when he randomly brought her a flower and the flower hugged the coach.
At first they seemed crazy, but then they realized that it was the family that was not okay. ”
