As parents, we have certain catch phrases we repeat to our kids thousands of times as they are growing up. What are your catch phrases? What lessons do you hope to teach them? What’s the one takeaway you hope they retain? I’d love to hear what you think and hope you will share your thoughts and ideas.
As I near completion of my parenting memoir, I have taken the time to give these questions some thought and I’m excited to share them with you soon. I created an inspiration card, which provides an overview of the lessons that are important to me.
I am also in the process of developing a podcast for parents and will be looking to invite fellow parents to discuss various topics on parenting. I hope to be able to begin an open dialogue on the many ways we can help our children navigate this thing called life.
Stay tuned…
While my children have never been naturally competitive, I have always tried to teach them that they should self-motivate to try their best. I’m slowly starting to see that happening.
That’s great advice, because it really does have to come from within. Thanks for sharing!!
Congrats on getting closer to completing your memoir. How exciting. I love your inspiration card. Great tips for parenting. My son is 32 now so we’re at a different level in our relationship. However, the tips on that card still apply. A
Thank you! My kids are in their college years now, so it’s interesting to see how our relationships are evolving.
