To avoid complete chaos, you plan out the day in advance. As a stay at home dad, you want to be sure that you prepare for the challenges ahead. That’s the right way to approach it, but you must remember that young kids don’t care what you have planned out.

This is why it is imperative to roll with the punches. A random temper tantrum can arise, and now you just spent 20 minutes trying to calm the little one down. That 20-minute timeslot was when you planned to read that new book to them. Put your gloves on and expect the unexpected.
