Parenting Quizzes

I took a "What kind of mum will you be?" test and apparently, I'll be an earth mother! LOL!!! Figures.
You're a born nurturer and relaxed about the idea of parenting. With your feet firmly on the ground, you understand that kids have a way of taking over your life and turning it upside down – and you're ready for that. Just don't get too relaxed – kids need boundaries to feel secure and a certain amount of routine and discipline to keep them on track. Also make sure that you don't get so wrapped up in your kids' world that you forget about yourself and your relationship with your partner. You need attention, too.

Tobin initially requested that I find him a quiz to take. But then stated, "Don't worry about it. I already know I'll be a good dad." heehee I found him one anyway and here are his results:
Diapers, baths, late-night feedings -- this dad will handle them all like a pro. You can count on him to administer the medicine for baby's first ear infection, and he'll probably want to take Junior to the doctor, as well. In fact, hands-on dads are so involved that they make great primary caregivers (this is the dad you want at home if you're planning to return to work). His parenting style will be based on nurturing, togetherness, and total involvement -- being there for his child will be his first priority.

Tobin got a big kick out of the results of his quiz. We had a great time trying to agree, and laughing while we helped each other choose the best answers for each other's quiz!

  1. FUNNY!!! What is even funnier is that Brian would probably NOT have gotten that positive of a quiz result before Koen was born, and yet did become a stay at home Dad and had to just figure it all out on his own anyway.... That's neat that Tobin wanted to do a quiz!
