With the arrival of a child, there are some things you learn automatically, like how little sleep an adult actually needs to function, the importance of sippy cups and that polar bears may be hiding in your closets.

For other lessons, including the skills to get through those all-important first years, there’s Parenting U from Children’s Hospital & Medical Center, classes given by professionals known for their knowledge of children.

The first class of its series — “Healthy Nutrition for Kids — is today.

There are two times that I often let my parenting choices not be the best.

One is when I let my curious children get into my makeup or the baby toiletries to make a massive mess. To me, it’s funny.

The other is when one of my youngsters decide to throw a public tantrum. I don’t negotiate with children. I walk away.

Potty training Alejandra was a breeze (or so I thought).

We went without diapers for three days straight. I kept a pair of cotton panties on her and ran around the house with a Lysol spray bottle and wash cloth.

Sure we had accidents, but we stayed the course.

And then we hit a brick wall at night or should I say in the wee hours of the morning.

Night time potty training was a different ball game.
