The New American Dream That’s Hurting Your Kids

I found myself sifting through websites, calling friends, and sighing to neighbors that I’ve no idea what I’m doing here.

Wait, What’s the Goal?

Overseas we had few options for the kids’ schooling and activities. We adjusted to that reality, but I confess often skimming Facebook with a twinge of jealousy as I saw my friends’ kids in ballet, piano recitals, sports games, school plays, and summer camps. Now that we were back in the States, I wanted them to have all of those experiences to make up for lost time.
