Dear mom.
Perhaps at this moment you are tired and don’t know how else to deal with your children.
Sometimes it seems as if the control of their education escaped out of our hands.
I have gone through that as well, and that feeling lasts for years, isn’t it so…I didn’t know how else to deal with my daughter, I lost direction.
Do you know why? We don’t know how to react with the authority that we have by nature, by the fact of being a mom.
Therefore what ends up happening is that we stoop down to their level, there is no dialogue, then there is no understanding and we end everything without peace and what’s worse the problem gets bigger and bigger everyday.
What we must do is create a bond of trust between parents and children.
That’s right, because if your child doesn’t hide anything from you even when he does something wrong he will tell you and you will be able to correctly guide him, showing him that he will always ripe what he sows. Unfortunately many times that doesn’t happen, the child doesn’t trust his parents because there is no dialogue. Every time they find out something about their child instead of talking and guiding them… the end up with arguments, the punishment, mistrust, frustration, cries and so on… In this case everyone is better off minding his or her own business.
What if you, mom, start from the beginning by calling your child for a conversation of love, respect, comprehension, and propose that from that day on you will always be true friends; since the role of a father and mother is to guide, teach, explain the why not’s. Of course who makes the decision is the child but at least you truly did your part.
May God guide you!
