Are You An Accountable Parent? As parents, we decided to have children without their vote. They don’t choose to have life, but we expect them to be grateful we gave them life. As parents, we believe our children owe us for given birth to them. When it is the opposite, we owe them for allowing us to be parents.
Our children will ultimately show their gratitude when they become adults themselves when they acknowledge all that we put into their upbringing and are ready to have children themselves. And the cycle continues! Our gratitude will come solely from the adults our children become. How they forge relationships, and they become Accountable Adults and parent themselves. Isn’t this the goal?
This podcast asks the question,
Are You An Accountable Parent?
To answer that question,
we must ask and answer six questions:
- Do you have support?
Support is an accountable parent’s best friend. Suppose we couldn’t give ourselves a chance to breathe. We will unintentionally suffocate our children. Love Is A Group Journey and Raise Children Takes A Village!
- Do You Acknowledge Your children’s Strengths and Weaknesses?
Never become blind to your children’s strengths or weaknesses. See them in their entirety. Please get to know them fully to support them where they need support and encourage them where all they need is encouragement.
- Making Sure Your Child Has A Voice?
Children should be seen, and they need to be heard. As they develop, we must develop as parents. No more, Do it all for them. It becomes more of giving and take. Allow your children to become part of the process.
- Are you and Your Children on the same page?
We should encourage everyone to get on the same page. Not just our children but every adult who is in their lives. Our children must be getting the same message from multiply voices. Direction is the key to decision making.!
- Do you understand the stage of development?
It may be a cliche, but Knowledge is a superpower. Understanding each development benchmark makes you a superhero. They will assist you with making informed decisions when issues arise. Yes, people are different, but we all have similarities, which allows us to predict behavior. Arm yourself!
- Are You Mindful of The Parent-Child Dynamic?
What is the Parent-Child Dynamic? It is a relationship between a child and parent/s. The Parent-child relationship is an investment into our legacy and the framework of conceiving an accountable adult. It recognizes that we are an us, and we both enhance each other’s quality of life.
So, Are You An Accountable Parent?
