Parenting is a hilarious journey. Raising the kids is one of the toughest but fulfilling jobs in the world. And being a mom of two cute dolls I am enjoying this thrilled ride with powerful mixed of emotions every day. There are many moments when my dolls are utterly delightful and give me an immense sense of pride and joy instantly, but there are some days when our kids seem to push our buttons and it is difficult to be the calm and patient parent that we usually are on good parenting days. During those days I have really no idea that how are I going to make it until their bedtime. The constant demand, the needs makes me crazy sometimes.

Whenever, I am feeling close to losing it myself, I often prefer to use some relaxing techniques. I try to carve out more me time. Think of something inspiring to calm myself down really helps me a lot. And reading the positive inspiring quotes is one of my favourite strategies that moved me in positive direction instantly.

Sometimes, little words of wisdom can go a long way. I believed that “positive parenting quotes” are great tool to positively influence your thinking and helps a lot to survive on bad parenting days. Here I am sharing a handful of my favourite quotes, hoping it will help bring a little perspective and inspiration to all of us. And you would also enjoy it.

  • 1.Being a parent we always want to make our kids just perfect and expect the most correct things from them. As parents, we always had never ending expectations from our kids. We lived in a world that is filled with insecurity and negativity. But it is not the end of hope; if you add the power of love, hope and faith together we still can raise a happy, confident and positive child in this negative world.
