Parenting Learned

Monday Motivation

My childhood should have taught me lessons for my own fatherhood, but it didn't because parenting can only be learned by people who have no children.

When it comes to raising your child, everyone has an opinion and thinks they know what is best for your child.  You often have brilliant ideas for other peoples children.  So why can't you figure out how to handle your own children.  

When you are too close to any situation it is difficult to see it in reality.  So when your children push your buttons, your emotions take over and it is hard to see the big picture.  This quote reminds me of that if you can just calm down, take a step back from the situation, you really do know what is best for your own children.  So trust your judgment!
