I’ve been there. In some ways, I’ll always be there. However, I also believe there’s hope. There are no guarantees, but it is possible to more confidently parent with purpose and passion.
After nearly 30 years into this journey, I have discovered critical core values on which to build a solid family foundation.
I believe…
- Children are worthy of love and joy without condition.
- Children learn best through healthy boundaries and communication.
- Children behave best when they feel valued and accepted.
- Children thrive only when trust is built and maintained with caregivers.
Mostly, I no longer agree with the belief that parents’ primary role is to tame children through the use of punishments and rewards.
What if instead of punishing and bribing you could gently uncover the real issues and find solutions that work? Wouldn’t it feel great to parent alongside your kids knowing you’re building a healthy relationship that will last a lifetime?
If this is you, then you’re in the right place.
