About this listen

Have you ever had a question from your child that you weren’t prepared for? We’ve said this before, but parenting is hard. What’s the hardest age to parent? Infants get a bad wrap and so do teenagers. What about pre-teens? Life seems busier than ever, but we feel that parenting in these modern times is harder or at the very least, more complicated than ever.

Call to Order:
Today’s call to order is to just be there for your kids and get involved. Make sure that you aren’t offloading the parenting responsibilities to teachers, coaches or other family members. Be their parent and you will see the rewards later. Kids don’t always appreciate what they have until they get older and you need to remember to do what’s best for them in the long term and not what’s easy for you in the short term. Make yourself proud and make them appreciate being a great parent. Being a good parent doesn’t mean doing what’s easy or popular.
