My kids were really struggling this morning. My daughter cried and beg to be carried to summer camp, while my son was in a grouchy mood the whole way there. I used up 200% of my RDA of patience just walking/carrying the kids to school! Then when I got there, my daughter started crying and didn't want me to leave.

If the kids are off for a reason, then I find it pretty easy to cope. But sometimes they're just off and I have no idea why! Nothing drains me faster than the good ol' "double meltown while out in public."

Is there a rhyme or reason to kids having "off" days?
