I am standing in line waiting for an appointment for my son and I just began thinking about the type of parent I am. I think I'm a pretty fair one but I am always seeking to improve my skills as a parent. I am always asking myself, "How can I meet his needs better?"
Do you do that? Probably not. Most of us parent-types parent our children giving them what WE think they need. It may seem right and noble but sometimes we are to give our children what THEY need. As a child, I really needed affection. I don't think my family realized that. They gave me what they thought I needed; and I did need some of them. But there was a big gap in what provision I was given.
Mommies, I think it is important to listen to the souls of our children and provide them with what it's crying out.
Much love to you,
Aurellia
