  Today's shared blog post comes from Franki Bagdade, author of the award-winning book (IAN Book of the Year, Literary Titan gold medal), I Love My Kids, But I Don't Always Like Them . In her post, Franki writes: Halloween was my Dad’s favorite holiday. My mom would pull out old decorations held together by masking tape and memories and we’d work together to decorate our big picture windows. My Dad would carve elaborate pumpkins, one year making a cabbage patch kid to my pure delight as a child of the 80’s. I have a more complicated relationship with Halloween. It’s hard not to see it as a disruption to the already impossible and overwhelming duties of modern parenthood. Read the rest of the post at  Will Halloween be a Treat or a Trick (substack.com) .

  Excerpt from I Love My Children, But I Don't Always Like Them Carma’s Story Every family has to figure out the expectation game and how each child may respond to surprises, frustration, disappointment and even too much excitement. As children grow up, and their behavior evolves, their capacity to handle change and respond to unwelcome triggers may also vary, depending on a number of factors. Every family must deal with this process. The Greens came to me because their daughter kept embarrassing them at family functions. Both parents had four siblings, and everyone lived nearby, so they came together to enjoy a meal at least once a week. Carma’s parents considered this a blessing, but their daughter wasn’t so appreciative. As she turned 12, she often tried to get out of family events by crying and begging to stay home alone. I facilitated a parent-child meeting with them (see Chapter 6). After some open-ended questions, Carma was able to verbalize that she felt nervous being with

  What will they remember? Franki Bagdade, author of I Love My Kids, But I Don't Always Like Them , asks in a recent blog post: I often wonder what my kids will remember when they think back on their childhood. Will they remember when I opened the eye glitter upside down at 4 am before a dance comp and they learned a string of new expletive phrases? Or will they remember that I was always there, cheering them on as they performed their heart out in an activity I couldn’t even attempt at their age?
