“Mostly, children can handle anything as long as there’s some stability. Same person, same house, same cheese and macaroni.”11 It was a point reiterated by parenting experts Daniel J. Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson in their book The Power of Showing Up: “You don’t have to be perfect; you can’t be…. They [your children] don’t need every advantage, and they don’t need a superparent. They just need you—authentic, flawed, and fully present you.”
