Becoming a parent is a life-changing experience for anyone, and with most changes, they can be both challenging and easy. 

In the book ‘Raising Kids Right’ by Karen Robertson, 32% of parents believe potty training is the most difficult thing they encountered when they became a parent.

But every parent has their own mountain to climb.  

“I found potty training quite easy… for me, it was the learning to walk stage. They’re standing, but you’ve got to support their hands… you’ve got to go behind them all the time… it was back breaking literally.”

– Cindy Poluta

“[For me], it’s finding books and finding ways for them to fall in love with reading… I think it’s like gym, you only dread going to gym when you are going… once’s you’re at gym you love it.”
