It’s officially New Year’s Eve where I am but cities across the world have already welcomed in the New Year! We don’t have anything special planned. We will probably do a family game night while watching the various New Year’s Eve programs.
In other news, tomorrow I will welcome another author to Weary Parent. Don’t worry, […]
As I come to the end of my first year as the author of Weary Parent, I decided to take a quick look back at the most popular topics and posts on parenting teens and tweens for 2007.

Oh my is all I can say! After celebrating Christmas Day at our house with the kids and my parents, we packed everyone up for a 5 hour drive to visit my husband’s side of the family. Three days later, 2 more holiday gatherings, and very little sleep, we are home, but the holidays aren’t […]
The last thing my kids expected on Christmas Day was to get a Wii. After all, we all know that they are next to impossible to get. Luckily my husband had gotten ours way back in October and we just let the kids think that there were none to be had. After all the gifts […]

One of my favorite things to do before Christmas is to spend an evening driving around the city looking at all the Christmas light displays. Too bad the Holdman’s don’t live in our area - I’d love to see their display in real life. In the mean time, I will just have to settle for […]
In light of the news of Jamie Lynn Spears teen pregnancy, there is now talk of Nickelodeon canceling the 4th season of the very popular Zoey101 series or incorporating a lesson about teen pregnancy in to an upcoming episode.
While the whole topic is rather uncomfortable for most parents to discuss with their kids, the fact […]

Recently I have been teasing my son. In his efforts of being a nice big brother and being super patient with his youngest sister, he has inadvertently created a monster of sorts. See, Miss N is very bright and has an amazing little memory, and she can navigate a game of Pokemon Pearl and Pokemon […]
Still snowed in? Kids bored during holiday break? I have found some fun ways to make snowflakes - online, paper, and the real thing! This is also a fun activity for showing kids that while no two snowflakes are ever alike - each one is so beautiful.
This is a snowflake I made using the online, […]
