historically, what was the thing that most triggered you coming from your kids?

how has your relationship with that evolved over time?

My 4yo is quite difficult (IMO) and I need to sort of rethink/reset my relationship with her every 3 to 6 months.

Some sort of power dynamic generally develops and it needs to be unwound. I need to rediscover and replenish my well of patience.

If I don't rethink my relationship with my kiddos every 3-6 months, it can certainly bring friction (they're now 17, 14, and 9).

One of the best pieces of advice I got early on (probably from a meditation app): "remember that the process-things that you want to get through IS the good stuff, not something to rush". 

It takes effort to step back and just BE with them, when our adult reaction is to quickly get through this task and onto the next one...
