The current state of parenting U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy released an advisory in August 2024, calling for a rapid resuscitation of parental well-being. Murthy highlights that the stress of parenting is affecting caregivers' physical and mental health. With nearly half of all parents feeling overwhelmed each day, it's essential to address these challenges and facilitate a healthier parenting experience.
Holidays are often depicted as picture-perfect moments, which leads parents to grapple with unrealistic expectations. This disconnect can undermine their self-worth and sanity as they juggle numerous activities and responsibilities. The reality of survival parenting limits opportunities for meaningful interactions, such as teaching a child to bake. Acknowledging these pressures is vital for fostering a supportive environment.
