How to Be a Modern Parent "As your child develops, the challenges will change, and your thinking may evolve, but your approach should be consistent, firm and loving. Help your child learn through experience that making an effort builds confidence and helps you learn to tackle challenges. Calibrate your expectations about what your child is capable of doing independently, whether you have an infant learning to sleep through the night, a toddler helping to put toys away, or an older child resolving conflicts."

Sad day within the family. Sick ppl....

Well said...

I am no way near where I want to be, but I have made it really far this year. Freedom, self-discovery, more clarity in what I need, learning to make decisions fast and prioritize, trying to be kind, growth, re-learning how to trust and love myself, are things I am picking up along the way to mend my broken heart and self. -Nelly L.

We Should Let Our Kids Go Barefoot As Often As Possible (Thanks, Science “Mommy will you lay with me?” – when your children want you to lie down with them at night I am having guilt as Gabe is growing up so fast. He is asking me to have more connections.. which I feel I am lacking behind due to other life demands.. I need to be more listening. He is as asking and wanting more connection, there is no but or if, just give and LOVE. " mommy wait for me" and his sadness is my motivation to be a better mom.

I agreed some of the talking points from this ted talk. It is true as I was portrayed in court as an unfit mother because I run "trial" at work and I have "mental illness". We need to look deep inside when he/she is the aggressor and the abuser. Own up to your mistake and change your thinking and behavior is the only way for me to agree of equal parenting. I will always make sure Gabe gets the love from his Dad. We only have happy pictures in the house.

Look, the trees are turning their own bodies into pillars of light, are giving off the rich fragrance of cinnamon and fulfillment, the long tapers of cattails are bursting and floating away over the blue shoulders of the ponds, and every pond, no matter what its name is, is nameless now. Every year everything I have ever learned in my lifetime leads back to this: the fires and the black river of loss whose other side is salvation, whose meaning none of us will ever know. To live in this world you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.
