Hey all! In case it's helpful for anyone else, I wanted to share with you the parenting blogger who is, as odd as it sounds, responsible for my initial forays down the path of Mustachianism before I even knew Mustachianism was a thing. She's Janet Lansbury (her blog is
http://www.janetlansbury.com/). Is anyone else in here a Janet fan? I'm a mom of 2 under 4 and glad I found her when my first kid was just a few months old. (Now if only I'd found MMM sooner...)
She's a pretty darn Mustachian early childhood guru if you ask me. Among other things, she posts about things like how your mindful presence is enough for your kids--no need to buy them a ton of shit or bend over backward to entertain them. And she advocates not packing their schedules or schlepping kids around town to entertain them, put them in classes, etc....that the best thing is to have a calm routine at home (and outside as much as possible!) for their early years. Another Mustachian aspect of her guidance for parents centers on what kids really need to be happy: parents who can slow down to the kids' speed, understand how to be respectful to kids (this was something I wanted but wasn't intuitive to me as a new mom), etc.
Anyhow, I thought at least some of you might appreciate knowing about this resource.
