The lovely stage of adolescence that we’ve all gone through seems to be a breeze when we’re younger, but once we become parents and reach the teen years, it’s not so easy. Teenagers are a whole new stage of parenthood that can test your patience and strength.
There are so many amazing milestones in your child’s life from the day that they’re born.

We live in a shiny world full of high expectations, and since we face them ourselves, we also set the same for our kids. Frankly, setting these expectations can be, at times, overwhelming for the young minds, and if you suspect that’s what’s happening to your teen, here’s something to help.
With Piglet getting older and getting to the stage where we need to think about moving her from the Cozy N Safe Merlin car seat that she has been using for the past two years (which has been fantastic, other than the seat cover bobbling).
