In yesterday’s blog, I proposed a list of ideas intended to give you some approaches to parenting that may, hopefully, benefit you and your family.
There was a huge response for which I’m most grateful.
How do you fight misinformation? The Internet and rampant, deliberate misinformation can discolor your child’s perceptions. If your family has at least one meal together each day, use that captive audience to ask your kids about their beliefs on a range of issues. Tell them what you believe and why.
A recent Gallup Poll says church membership is down to 50% from its 70% high. Do you still have faith in God and do you share your faith with your children? Navigating this world is made even more difficult without faith.
Despite all your challenges, do you take time for FAMILY FUN? Your family should be your children’s most important TRIBE. They also may have a group at school and perhaps an online group. Creating some fun time together is just another way to keep your family as your kids’ primary influencer.
Do your kids admire you and the way you live your life? You can become a powerful mentor to your children if they respect you and your choices.
