Parenting Struggles
Parenting presents you with many challenges. Most parents handle the unexpected questions or the awkward moments with relative grace.
The more strong-willed your child ….the more demand upon you to be a more skilled parent. The more such kids pull us into their oppositional tendencies….the more clarity we need to get out of this unhealthy pattern.
It’s as if the more challenging are here to require that we enhance our parenting skills.
What do I model as a parent? If I allow myself the excuse that it’s ok to lose my temper when I’m not getting what i want….then, of course, my kids must understand that its okay for them to lose their temper when they don’t get what they want.
So remember it all starts with how we as parents lead!
