Its so discouraging when you feel like nothing is working. That's why parents need each other. There have been so many times when my kids have entered a new stage and I have felt like I didn't have the particular "tool" for the job...ya know? Lots of times, just talking to a friend helps a new idea to pop up, and it might just be the one that works!

Yes, we do need each other for support and advice!
