13 SEP. 2019 · As a parent, you fight hard to find a family rhythm because what you make time for ultimately shapes what your child will value. In the first few years, parents fight hard to try to find a rhythm. In the pre-school and early elementary years, parents hone the rhythm to a pretty fine science with school, homework, church, sports, bedtime routines and other activities creating a pretty predictable pattern. But as kids push the double digit birthdays, a significant shift start to happen: They go to friends houses with your blessing but without you. They have sports, activities and school projects that expand their world. They develop interests that may reflect their personality – not necessarily yours As we said earlier this week, a key step is to ensure that you as a parent don’t withdraw even if it feels like your son or daughter is withdrawing from you.

Sometimes parents feel guilty about saying no. Or, they want to avoid a temper tantrum that will surely erupt when a child is told of a limit.

It teaches them appropriate behavior and gives them opportunities to sharpen some of their skills.

30 AGO. 2019 · Successful parents encourage healthy behaviors, attitudes, and worldviews. Parenting is a thinking man’s game. It takes energy, strategy, and intentionality. Yet, many parents are unwilling to give it the attention that it deserves. As a result, their children become shaped by the world around them rather than by the parents who love them. Successful parents do not just discourage unhealthy habits, they also intentionally encourage positive habits. They envision the type of person they would like their children to become. They consistently model that behavior for them. They speak lofty expectations into their childrens’ lives. They think the best of their children. They provide opportunities for their children to learn valuable life lessons. And they praise positive habits both privately and publicly.
