How to Be a Good Mom: What You Don’t Have to Do

I recently read a post that described how to be a mom in 2019. “Make sure your children’s academic, emotional, psychological, mental, spiritual, physical, nutritional and social needs are met,” while being careful, “not to overstimulate, underestimate, improperly medicate, helicopter, or neglect them,” while maintaining, “a screen-free, processed foods-free, plastic-free, body-positive, socially-conscious, egalitarian (yet authoritative), nurturing, while fostering an ethos of independence, gentle, but not overly permissive, pesticide-free, two-story, multilingual home, preferably on a cul-de-sac, with an earth-first backyard.” Oh yeah, “And don’t forget the coconut oil!”
