Many parents make their children their priority. And that is the right way to go. However, some people get confused as to what this should look like. The idea isn’t to give your energy and resources and time to your son or daughter; it’s to ensure that you are the best version of yourself. It might sound selfish on the surface, but it’s not -- you’re doing it for them. A person who is getting enough exercise, eating well and being all-around happy will be able to do more for their child than someone who’s constantly on the edge of a breakdown because they’re not looking after themselves.
