We all want to be great parents, deep in our hearts but sometimes we bring children in to the world without giving the reality of parenthood much thought and find ourselves in a reality that we weren't expecting.
Like everything we do in life, we need to think about the possible outcomes to test if we are ready for that possibility, we often do things without putting much thought in to it, on a superficial level but having children is something that you plan, some would argue with that but you need to be ready for the responsability of a child and all of the following consequences and difficulties.
A child wants to be loved, understood, feel safe, learn and be taught, taught how to become a responsable, caring, stong adult.
That is our job as a parent! our job is to make sure that our child knows that they can come to us with their problems and speak freely without judgment, that we will listen unconditionally and ask open questions so that they can think critically to find their own answers.
We need to be interested in what they like and what they are doing and allow them to be creative and themselves, be able to laugh with them.
"Children come through us but they are not ours, they are their own"
We need to have a relationship with our children and treat them as individuals and help them to grow into healthy adults, we are their example so lets be the example we want them to have.
