You thought you'd stay calm.
You promised yourself you'd be patient.
You imagined gentle parenting with soft voices, deep breaths, and emotionally regulated responses.
Then reality happened.
I Was Supposed to Be Calm, Gentle, and Patient. Then Reality Happened. is a funny, honest, and deeply relatable look at modern parenting-the exhaustion, overstimulation, guilt, chaos, and love that no one fully prepares you for.
Through humour, sarcasm, and emotional reflection, this book captures the everyday moments parents silently struggle through:
This isn't a perfect parenting guide.
It's reassurance for parents who are already in the middle of the mess, trying their best.
If you've ever felt overwhelmed and still kept showing up-this book is for you.
