I do the same for my kids. To be fair once I understood that if someone was not doing this with me I would be annoyed. What if ever time you were relaxing someone just picked a seemingly random time to tell you to work?

Right? That’s why places tell you they’re closing in five/ten minutes instead of just “get out, it’s time now bye bye”.

You know someone should just write down all these parenting ideas and put it in book form. I bet no one has figured that out before. A guide to parenting if you will.

Patent pending!

The show Bluey is basically a guide on how to be a good parent.

Dude, I love that show. I'll be traveling for work alone in my hotel room and put Bluey on. It's a great show. My son likes it too which is nice.

Basically. The best advice I can give parents is to read about parenthood. Doesn’t matter which book. Any bestselling parenting book will make you a better parent than the average. Because the average does not read and just wing it.
