greetings, all!

hi, everybody!

thanks for the invite, retro!

i've not too many reasons to come here, for i am not a buddhist, theravada or otherwise. i actually wouldn't classify myself as anything as far as that goes. but i've always been interested in classical religion/cultural studies, and love to learn as much as i can about anything, when i get the chance. i am a mother of two and could surely use any help i can get, as far as patience goes, anyway

Greetings naechstenliebe,

I'm sure we can find you some good sources of information to help with mothering. As a father, I've found Buddhism to be really valuable in bringing up my son.

That might help you get started.... a bit of forewarning, some things might seem a little cultural specific, so you might what to take those aspects with a grain of salt.

Any questions about those or Buddhism in general, don't hesitate to ask! We're generally a friendly lot.

Metta,
Retro.
