Clothes! Clubs! Emotional outbursts (yours and theirs)! Guilt! There's plenty of back to school stress for parents too - and it doesn't end on Day One. Read more at Grazia Daily.

Well, we made it. In some parts of the country, kids have been back a while and others are just returning this week. The beginning of the summer holidays feels like a hazy dream – we had hope then, and a naivety that this year would be a bit less chaotic and the house hadn’t been ransacked yet. Somewhere in the middle we found our groove and then for the last couple of weeks we’ve been preparing for the return-to-school.

At this point Doug commented on how expensive it all was and I nearly ripped his face off while informing him through gritted teeth that I was part way through a three-step process after asking Instagram how to return grubby, stained polo shirts to their former white glory. . Then starts the communication. There are emails from school, there are multiple website logins for payments, the official parent WhatsApp group kicks off, then the splinter WhatsApp group runs a commentary on the official group and whether Belinda was being passive aggressive. . There’s a retracted email from school that the form you just filled in was the wrong one.

And then, on top of the inordinate amount of information and to-do lists to tick off, there’s the emotional fall out. This carries through whatever year because kids generally don’t like change and nor do we. It’s especially tough when it’s the start of school. These people don’t know my child, their quirks and foibles. The worry that they won’t have any friends. They’ll be tired and misbehave and be tarnished askid.
