Parenting Is Not My Dharma Practice, Writer Says

Original: Parenting Is Not My Dharma Practice (and Maybe That’s Okay)

A writer at Tricycle argues against the popular idea that raising children should be treated as a spiritual practice. The piece suggests that parents do not have to frame the daily grind of caregiving as Buddhist discipline or dharma work, and that accepting this can be a relief rather than a failure, opening a conversation about the pressures of spiritual parenting culture.

Why now: It challenges a widespread belief in wellness and Buddhist circles that parenting can and should be a spiritual practice.
