As the back-to-school season approaches, it’s not just the kids heading back to the classroom—moms are back in the game too! With my 13 years of experience navigating the school year, I’ve gathered some vital insights on what moms should be ready to say “no” to. Trust me, you deserve it!

  1. Gossip

    Let’s put an end to the endless chatter. We’re adults here, so can we please keep the gossip to a minimum at PTA meetings? I’m here for the coffee and some real conversation, not the latest drama about who’s doing what.

  2. Doing Your Kid’s Homework

    We all know that “creative” project your child submitted wasn’t really theirs. And those notes to teachers about missing homework due to last night’s game? Let’s ditch that. Kids need to learn responsibility, even if it means facing the occasional grade that isn’t perfect.

  3. Fancy Lunches

    If your child is eating, you’re winning. Seriously, a simple sandwich and an apple do the job just as well as a bento box masterpiece. I promise, no one is judging your Lunchables!

  4. Being the Overzealous Volunteer

    That phase is over! I’ve found my tribe—other moms who are just as exhausted and ready to take a back seat. We’re all about prioritizing our own well-being. Let’s support the younger, more energetic parents to step up!

  5. Blaming Teachers

    It’s time to stop pointing fingers. If your child is struggling, instead of placing blame, consider volunteering in the classroom to understand what teachers deal with daily. They’re underpaid and overworked, and a little empathy goes a long way.

  6. Guilt

    Let’s leave guilt behind. As I grow older, I realize that I’m not messing up my kids. Society can be harsh, but we’re doing just fine in our own way. A guilt-free mindset leads to a happier mom, which means a happier family.

  7. Comparisons

    As your kids head into high school, it’s easy to fall into the comparison trap. Their achievements don’t diminish your child’s journey. Focus on what makes your family unique instead of getting lost in the race.

This school year, say “yes” to prioritizing yourself. Kids are resilient, and it’s okay to let them navigate their own challenges—even if they occasionally bump into a few walls. They’ll learn and grow, we promise!

Summary:

As the school year kicks off, it’s essential for moms to set boundaries and prioritize their own well-being. Saying “no” to gossip, doing homework, fancy lunches, over-volunteering, blaming teachers, guilt, and comparisons can lead to a more fulfilling and stress-free experience. Remember, a happy mom translates to a happy home.
