As a former perfectionist, I’d really like to have a parenting expert hold my hand and gently walk me through every tough moment. I think this would make so many of my knee-jerk reactions less intense and my demeanor 1000% calmer, but most experts don’t make house calls. However, many of them do have social media accounts! So, while you’re scrolling past cute puppies, viral dance clips and famous folks eating the hottest of hot sauces, check out these parenting expert accounts that can help you in small digestible nuggets of time.
