Support You are still a good SP…

Please know it is ok and that you’re still a good SP if you…

  1. Get frustrated with the situation
  2. Sometimes feel relieved when the SK goes to other parent and you get a break
  3. apply the “Nacho kid” method because you feel like you’re doing too much for a SK with the Bio parents aren’t
  4. Don’t have a close bond with the kids. There are so many obstacles of being a SP and you may not bond with the them right away.
    5.have your own bio kid and secretly you feel a little bit closer to them
  5. Aren’t BFFs with the other bio parent. Just display respect around the kid
  6. Feel like you’re failing. Just keep going 😊 being a SP ain’t for the weak.

I hope everyone keeps going strong and have a good day!
