What are the three hardest months for you?  And that’s the ACTUAL month names, not “this month . . . last month . . . and next month.

In a new survey, parents say the most challenging month to get through is FEBRUARY.  And it must be REALLY bad because it’s the shortest month.

January and March tied for the second-worst, which means there must be something EXTRA difficult about the winter months.

They didn’t ask why, but there are plenty of possibilities:  There’s extra effort in keeping kids dressed properly . . . getting around to activities in winter weather . . . kids may be more likely to be stuck inside during those months . . . kids may be more sick . . . and some parents may be operating with less time off.
