Golden Rule of Parenting
โจ The Golden Rule of Parenting is: Do unto your children as you wish your parents had done unto you. โจ โฃโฃ

๐น Easier said than done, right? Who else remembers being a kid or even a young adult pre-children and thinking, “๐ ๐ธ๐ช๐ญ๐ญ ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ฅ๐ฐ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ฌ๐ช๐ฅ๐ด ๐ด๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฅ๐ข๐บ…” or “๐๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฏ ๐’๐ฎ ๐ข ๐ฑ๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต, ๐ ๐ธ๐ช๐ญ๐ญ ๐ฅ๐ฐ ๐๐ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ก.” โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
๐น I am sure every parent out there can agree that being a parent is much more challenging than we had thought it would be, but it is also so much more rewarding too.โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
๐น Something to always keep you grounded as a parent is to take the time and reflect on your own childhood. Ask yourself, “๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ธ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ญ๐ฅ ๐ ๐ฉ๐ข๐ท๐ฆ ๐ธ๐ข๐ฏ๐ต๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ฑ๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต๐ด ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ด๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ช๐ด ๐ด๐ช๐ต๐ถ๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ? ๐๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ค๐ฐ๐ถ๐ญ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐บ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ฉ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ช๐ต ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ต๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ต๐ถ๐ณ๐ฏ, ๐ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ต๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ด๐ฉ๐ช๐ฑ ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฎ ๐ค๐ฐ๐ถ๐ญ๐ฅ ๐ฉ๐ข๐ท๐ฆ ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฅ?”โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
๐น We don’t have all the answers as parents, no matter how many books we read or stories we listen to, every child is different, and therefore requires different parenting. So remember to give yourself grace! No parents is perfect, we are all just learning as we go, and supporting each other along the way! โฃโฃ
