Kate Hudson’s Parenting Tips
Yummy mommy Kate Hudson shared her parenting advice in the latest issue of Life and Style Weekly. Kate says her four-year-old son Ryder Russell Robinson says “amazing” things, but sometimes she’d give anything for a little peace and quiet.
“I miss sleep! When you become a parent, you don’t get to sleep anymore. I don’t think I’ve slept in four years,” she laughed.
“You do that thing where you negotiate with the kid. I’m like, ‘Please, Ryder. I’ll put on Curious George if you just let Mommy sleep for another hour. Please!’ Even if you’re sleeping, though, you always have one eye open and one ear listening.”
Kate also said she’s found herself mimicking those tried and true expression Mom Goldie Hawn said to her.
“My favorite one is, ‘Because I said so.’ That’s a big one. You say that more often than you’d like.”
So what’s her parenting secret? Kate says she’s learned to go with the flow and just focus on ensuring young Ryder is happy.
“With parenting, there are no real answers. Instinctually, you do the right thing; it happens the way it’s supposed to. Do the best you can. Everybody goes through difficulties with parenting. We all go through the joys of it and we go through the difficulties of it. It’s the greatest journey.
“At the end of the day, you just hope your child is happy. When you see your kid happy, you realize there’s nothing else on the planet you’d rather be doing at that moment. That’s the greatest reward.”

She should talk. His hair really needs to be cut. I really do not see what all of the stars think that their sons look good in long hair. Hey or maybe it is just me.
