PARENTING

This week we've been talking about parenting and problem-handling during parenting. I found it interesting that at one point during our discussion Brother Williams said that parents have the potential to learn as much as they did from the 0-18 years while they were growing up, while raising their children. A lot of the time they don't take the time to be with their children and learn important things. We also talked a lot about how to handle problems with your children and helping to teach children how to contribute, because a child needs to feel as though they are contributing. Adults do to. Have you ever gone to someone's house for an extended amount of time and they don't let you help with cooking, or dishes, or whatever else there is to do? It makes you feel out of place doesn't it? It's the same for children. They need to feel like they are needed and can contribute to what goes on around the house.
