The Best Parenting Advice I Never Expected

parenting advice

The best parenting advice I have ever received wasn’t from a book.

It wasn’t from a podcast.

It wasn’t from a parenting expert.

It came from watching great customer service.

Everywhere I go, I pay attention to how people make others feel.

The host who remembers a name.

The server who notices something before being asked.

The employee who solves a problem before it becomes a complaint.

Those moments matter.

Parenting is remarkably similar.

The best parents aren’t perfect.

They are present.

The biggest lesson I’ve learned this year is that children don’t need perfection.

They need attention.
