Are you a parent? I know we have been raised in different household by different parents. Two things for sure is a parent or guardian was present in the house and we (as the child) was present in the house. If we reflect on our childhood experiences, we may not agree with all the decisions made, some decisions that were made had nothing to do with the benefit of us (the child), and some decisions that were made was not the best for us (the child). Just because we are the adults does not mean we are perfect and know everything. Sometimes all children need is LOVE and ATTENTION. Lets not wait until they are at a breaking point, feeling rejected and left alone. Lets pour into our children even more, even when you think your doing your best do more and some more. It is our role as a parent to train up a child in the way she/he should go; and when she/he is older she/he will not depart from it. We should not bully or provoke our children because this causes them to become discouraged and rebellious. Either way isn't a healthy result. We should bring them into discipline, which we lead by example. Actually, have a conversation with them, I'm sure their "version" of you as a parent is far from yours. Lets not waste another moment thinking we know how they feel (the children) and ask them what they need and what they desire for you to be as the parents. Let their household experience be healthy and functional so when disfunction is being presented they recognize it and make sound decisions. What kind of parent are you?
P.S. I LOVE THEIR VERSION
