Apr. 26, 2023 NO MORE NO Is It Too Late To Become A 'Yes' Mom? Every weekend, it's the same scene at CJ Kelsey's house, as her daughter abandons breakfast and asks for dessert instead. And the thing is, she's just sick of saying "no" all the time. She writes: "My children are constantly comparing me to other adults who (seemingly) let their children do whatever they please for the most part, and I am left feeling inadequate. I constantly hear some version of: 'Well, their mom lets them do everything — why can't you?' A mom from school, relatives, fictional parents from TV. It hurts. Even though I know that parenting is subjective, and we can only do what is within our own powers, it still stings when I know they wish I were different. Then again, didn't I wish my parents were different too?" It's all got her wondering whether it's too late to become a "yes" mom. And honestly, who HASN'T had the same thought?
