My partner has a 3 year old son, and I don’t have any kids. I’ve always wanted to have kids but never found the one and don’t want to being a child into the world without being settled. I have zero idea how to parent and for the last 10 months sort of just been winging it. That sounds very bad but I obviously employ common sense! I’m slowly learning how to parent, but also wonder if I am doing things wrong. If he misbehaves in front of her family and I tell him off I wonder if they are judging me. The first time I changed his nappy I made an absolute howler of it and got shit on the floor. I was so embarrassed. I have such a good relationship with him and he always tells me he loves me and always asks for me when I’m not there, and I hope that means I am doing a good job. But I just don’t know🤷🏼♂️ my partner has never said I’m doing a bad job, but at the same time has never said I’m good at it! Just seem to be in some middle ground where I just try to muddle through it and hope for the best. I also worry that if I tell him off for something or ask him not to do something then my girlfriend will think that’s it’s stupid and he doesn’t need to be stopped from doing it etc. it’s just a minefield to me! I so desperately want to do a good job, because I really don’t want to let him down! He’s dad is a bit of a waste of space and offers no real help or want to see him, which makes me even more determined to do well for him. It’s just hard🤷🏼♂️
