For those with a WAS...How do you cope?

[LuLu]

If you're like me, the biggest 180 you can do is to keep your mouth shut. Don't complain, contradict, nag, whine, tell him what to do, coach him on his parenting and etc. Seriously though, that's been the hardest one for me. I have to let him parent on his own. It's okay if he didn't clean the girls' ears after baths today or if he put their pajama pants on backwards or whatever. It's not the end of the world and it's not worth fighting for. It's so hard to do sometimes to let go of some of the control because we are the Mom's but it's something we have to do.
