Optimism won’t solve all your parenting struggles.
It’s not a great tactic for magically getting a child to sleep.
It doesn’t clean up a messy house or make dinner for the family or find the missing library book.
It won’t cure exhaustion and can’t put you in two places at once.
And with all that said, there doesn’t seem to be a better option than staying optimistic. It’s good for you and even better for the family.
