“In battle, soldiers are often dazed or inhibited by the “fog of war.” This fog comes from smoke, explosions, shell shock, lack of information, etc. As a parent of twins, you have your own fog of war. This fog is thickest during your twins’ first year.”

“just one generation ago, kids were potty trained at seventeen to twenty-two months. I truly believe it’s because our moms, for the most part, were stay-at-home moms. I mean stay at home. They didn’t work at home, they had no computer for email and Facebook, no cell phones, no identities to preserve, no mommy groups, no playdates, no baby gymnastics, no music classes, and no swimming lessons. Now, I’m forty-three, so maybe I’m talking to a younger audience here, and I’m certainly not saying our moms exhibited the best parenting. But I do believe it was that stay-at-home factor that made potty training so easy.”
