Over the past few weeks I’ve learned a valuable lesson. In fact my daughters have taught me a lesson about avoiding stress.
Last weekend my memory failed me. I was supposed to have arranged something for my kids, but it completely slipped my mind leading to red faces all around, none redder than mine.
Be it mum guilt or dad guilt, us parents seem to face this debilitating emotion at every turn. Guilt is something I struggle with sometimes. as a father. I could think of no one better to discuss the issue with than Jo Wimble-Grove who writes the Guilty Mother blog.
“Hey John, I’m producing a coffee table book about dads and fatherhood. Perhaps you’d like to be in it? If so, fill in this form and send me some photographs.”
It would appear my family know me very well. Having seen me struggle many a time with cameras, video cameras, charging cables and battery packs, they’ve just bought me an early Father’s Day present from notonthehighstreet.com that’s absolutely perfect.
