I wonder if anyone had anything that used to be hard for them and is now easy? Or vice versa? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-comes-eay-to-you-what-comes-hard#post-1876140 Wed, 24 Sep 2014 19:24:39 +0000 Tanjowen 1876140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Easy:<br /> Organization<br /> Speaking my mind<br /> Compassion<br /> Interacting with our LO<br /> Good work ethic</p> <p>Hard:<br /> Motivation<br /> Finding/Making time for the important things<br /> Being around large groups (I'm an introvert)<br /> Math</p> <p>LO: I hope he inherits my literature skills and his father's math skills.

Writing, history, art, music...<br /> • Parenting, for the most part<br /> • Jumping in to other cultures head first and just figuring it out.</p> <p>Hard:<br /> • The "technical" subjects. Math, science. Which is tricky because I have a ton of classes in epidemiology, genetics, and pharmacology for my midwifery degree that I'm a little scared of. :P<br /> • Social skills in my own culture. I get social anxiety here, partially because of TCK syndrome.<br /> • Perfectionism. Which causes procrastination. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-comes-eay-to-you-what-comes-hard#post-1876016 Wed, 24 Sep 2014 16:31:12 +0000 Lindsay05 1876016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lizzywiz: I was waivering back and forth if parenting was easy or hard and I figured that I have been able to figure out almost everything on my own and have been able to trust my instincts. On the other hand, at times, I want to walk out the door because i'm so tired and overwhelmed LOL. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-comes-eay-to-you-what-comes-hard#post-1876011 Wed, 24 Sep 2014 16:28:42 +0000 Cherrybee 1876011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Easy:<br /> Academic achievement<br /> Making friends<br /> Humour<br /> Admitting I'm wrong</p> <p>Hard:<br /> Not being selfish<br /> Being a parent<br /> Being a half decent wife<br /> Life, generally. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-comes-eay-to-you-what-comes-hard#post-1876009 Wed, 24 Sep 2014 16:28:23 +0000 lizzywiz 1876009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Lindsay05: oh, I want to plagiarize your list- I want to put independence under 'easy' but parenting under 'hard', it comes sooo hard, ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-comes-eay-to-you-what-comes-hard#post-1876003 Wed, 24 Sep 2014 16:24:00 +0000 Lindsay05 1876003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Easy:<br /> Motivation<br /> Athleticism<br /> Parenting<br /> Independence</p> <p>Hard:<br /> Book smarts<br /> Patience<br /> Social Skills </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-comes-eay-to-you-what-comes-hard#post-1875991 Wed, 24 Sep 2014 16:18:00 +0000 lizzywiz 1875991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>And last, what is one thing you hope comes easy to your LOs?</p> <p>What comes easy:<br /> Book smarts<br /> Avoiding debt<br /> Education/career perseverance<br /> Joking- about anything!<br /> Compassion</p> <p>What comes hard:<br /> Moderation, in anything.<br /> Household management/ cleaning<br /> Being affectionate<br /> Taking care of my health<br /> Style/ decorating</p> <p>And for my daughter, I guess I hope she has her Dad's family's ease with making healthy choices with no angst.
