David Vienna of TheDaddyComplex.com has revealed some techniques for parents who are fans of parenting trends. It’s quite simple, yet so sophisticated and it takes a special type of person to adhere to it. It’s actually a two-step process that will sooth your overzealous thoughts about raising another life. Hit the jump for the process.
The method is better known by it’s acronym: CTFD. It stands for “Calm The F*ck Down.” And that’s not a message to give your kids. It’s for you. The two-step process seems to be even easier than –well, the two-step.
Using CTFD assures you that — whichever way you choose to parent — your child will be fine (as long as you don’t abuse them, of course). To see it in action, here are some sample parenting scenarios and how CTFD can be employed:
-Worried your friend’s child has mastered the alphabet quicker than your child? Calm the f*ck down.
-Scared you’re not imparting the wisdom your child will need to survive in school and beyond? Calm the f*ck down.
-Concerned that you’re not the type of parent you thought you’d be? Calm the f*ck down.
-Upset that your child doesn’t show interest in certain areas of learning? Calm the f*ck down.
Stressed that your child exhibits behavior in public you find embarrassing? Calm the f*ck down.

Yes, using the CTFD method, you’ll find the pressure lifted and realize your child loves you no matter what, even if they’ve yet to master the alphabet. You’ll also learn that whether or not you’re the best parent in the world, as long as you love your child, they’ll think you are and that’s what matters. Plus, CTFD makes you immune to those that prey upon the fears of new parents, like pseudoscientists and parenting authors.
To use CTFD, just follow these simple steps:
1. Calm the f*ck down.
2. There is no second step.
As a matter of fact, Parent or not, these two steps may also be applicable to everyday life.
