Parenting styles on vacation

December 26, 2009




Over the course of any given day, I get many glimpses into how other people parent their children.

Attachment parenting has not caught on in France

May 29, 2008




There are many reasons to love France. Great wines and cheeses. Beautiful villages. Plentiful arts and culture. There are also many reasons to hate it. Public toilets that are rarely clean, rarely have toilet paper and rarely have toilet seats. People that let their dogs poo wherever they like and don’t pick up after them. [...]

I’m a horrible houseguest

May 28, 2008




Be forewarned before you invite me to your home that I am a horrible houseguest now that I have children. If you enjoy my company and the company of my family and are willing to put up with us, by all means invite us over. But please understand that I will not live up to [...]
