Ok parents, this message is for all of us, including me. We know if you want to see success you must commit to it. Well, the same goes for parenting our children. Like I said many times before, being a mom or dad is the easy part. Being a parent and sculpting our children to be the best that they can be is the hard part. We MUST commit to them, they need us to commit to them. So you say well, it is so much work to keep on top of them and make them do their chores. SO WHAT>> then it is so much work. Do it..Commit to them.. they are worth it.
You can not jump into working this system if you do not have your boundaries/rules set.. that is not fair to your children if they do not know their boundaries. The boundaries are for them as much as you. It will help you keep your consistancy with them. They must follow these rules all the time. You must inforce them all the time also. If a police officer sees someone doing something wrong, against the law wrong- do you think it is right that he would turn the cheek cause it wasn't convenient for him, or it caused him more work. I am sure this happens but it is not right. Children disrespecting other adults, police officers and teachers is epidemic BUT the demand for respect starts at home. It starts with you parents, please make the efforts for your children. Love them but don't neglect your responsibility. Parent them with love and you will find you are a parent in peace!
