16) Festive Reflections: Parenting and the mental dance of going back home

'Tis the season to journey back, to our roots, our old homes, and our cherished roles in the family fold.

Yet, this time, we return not just as individuals, but as the architects of our own families. We've grown, gained new identities, and now bear the responsibility of caring for our own.

Amidst the festive family frolics, we dance with grace, balancing the nostalgia of the past with the joy of creating new traditions for our own growing families.

Our resident psychologist, Dr. Naomi Gibson, steps in to help us see the situation, and provides us with a mental map of things we can do.
