@sarahdonahue01: I’m not perfect, my kids aren’t perfect and while it’s great to show happy moments I also want to be realistic with you guys!!💛🫶🏻 #mom #Soccer #relatable #relatablemom
This honestly made me feel less alone in a way I didn’t expect. I know River isn’t neurodivergent (to my knowledge). But my 3yo is autistic, and this is what most events like this look like for him. Sometimes it breaks my heart feeling like he’s the only one missing out or having a tough time while all his peers just so easily do things. Seeing another little one have a hard time reminded me that he’s not alone in being a little kid who just can’t always do the “cute” version of things. I hope River has an easier time next time, but thank you for sharing the realness. It meant more than you probably realize💗

I took my 23 month old to her first ballet class and it was terrible, the tantrum lasted the entire class. Like you mentioned I couldn’t be upset because it was a crowded class. But man I left scared and never wanting to go back. But of course I only documented the pretty moments on Facebook and IG too lol

Thank you for this… took my son to this kids carnival where he was going to get to ride a little train and win prizes and do games. What did he do the entire time?? Scream and cry.

Thank you for sharing this. It makes me feel not so alone when my 3 and a half yr old throws major fits for no reason. I always feel like my kid is the only one 😭

Honestly thank you for being realistic cuz it is discouraging when you see so many videos of little kids playing so good, throwing no fits and your own kid is doing the complete opposite 😩 My daughter doesn’t cry anymore, she just refuses to play so that’s fun🙃 so again thanx for being realistic. I can definitely relate

We started my toddler in soccer at 2 years old and he was the only one crying for his “mommy” at his first game and didn’t want to participate at all 🤣🤣🤣 but give him time by the 3rd game he was participating 😅😅

Thank you for sharing this! We just had this experience at tball for my 3 year old and felt so discouraged because all of the other kids were participating.
