OBLIGATIONS AS A PARENT

Obligations as a Parent

Our children are our children regardless of their age.  We will always be Mom or Dad to our kids, although as we age, the gap certainly begins to shrink.  In some cases, our children become our best friends, after all they have been with us since their beginning.

As they mature into themselves, it is important to remember that as we made our way through adversity and learned valuable lessons so will our children.  We are their parents but, at some point, we must step back, trust in the seeds we planted and let them learn through life’s experience and their own judgement.

This can be a very difficult task, as we feel we must advise and help in whatever way we can.  Reassure them that we are always there for them. The lessons they learn through experience are the most valuable and the ones that they remember. 

Do you remember when your parents tried to advise you? 

Most of us felt they were out of touch and interfering.  Your children will likely feel the same way.

We do have obligations as parents and we do our best.

The world they are growing up in is different from the one we grew up in. Life was easier on some levels and also more challenging on other levels.  

Be the example they need. Nothing speaks louder.

Remember you are human. If you made mistakes when they were young, acknowledge the mistakes and then let go.

Every day is a learning experience. Our obligations as a parent is to teach by example and to love and reassure them that we care. They too will make mistakes just as we did. Forgive them and forgive yourself.

MINDFULNESS OR IMPULSE

Life comes with many rules.  Some seem reasonable and others, it is hard to understand why they are in place.

There will be times when we know it is essential to speak up to help change our lives, our world or specific situations in our life for the better.  Parents, management, government, etc. that set the rules can be rigid and steadfast to old rules, but it is imperative to find ways to share our thoughts, especially in ways not to ruffle egos if we want to be heard.  Acting on impulse may not be the best way. After all, change is what we want, not recognition. We can leave our egos out of the equation as well.

Mindfulness or Impulse

The way we approach things is important.  With the right attitude and with mindfulness, we can help create favorable change.  It may feel restrictive with this approach, but it is far more important to accomplish what we set out to do instead of creating blockades because of our approach.

Most people are open to suggestions. The old saying goes, “You get more bees with honey than you do with vinegar”. 

There are many ways to get your point across.  Forethought and a gentle, respectful but firm approach is worth consideration.

What is your approach, mindfulness or impulse?
