My Son Has A Girlfriend [TODAY PARENTS CONTRIBUTOR]

The TODAY Parenting Team is a community where anyone can write posts, ask questions and share advice. I’m honored to be on the TODAY Parents Contributor Team. Here’s my most recent post.

Within every family, there’s always the first child who is the “trailblazer child.” There’s pressure on that first child because he or she is the one who starts it all for you and kinda becomes your parenting gauge for all the others.
