Parenting A Parent:

Parenting A Parent:

Are you parenting a parent?

Do you have a child living at home who has a child?
Have you figured out what you are ready and willing to do for this child, your grandchild?
Do you want to raise them or do you want your child to do that? Are you going to help, and if so how much?
There is a fine line between helping and interfering.  But on the other hand, your child might want you to take over and parent because they don’t want to or because they don’t feel adequate.  It is our job to help them realize and understand that we didn’t have all the answers at first either. Show them that you are there to help them, not judge them. That you are there to guide them with advice, but not take over.  That you understand that they will not have it all figured out yet, and that is ok.
And lastly, don’t hover over them when they are doing things with their child. Let them make mistakes and come and ask you how to fix them. That is how you learned.

Watch the video up above to find out how to handle this.

It is ok to make mistakes. What this video to see why.

And you can also learn what kind of parent you are and see if there is room for improvement.

Conflict / Opinion

Conflict / Opinion

See how someone can have a different opinion and still be respectful !!!

We need to understand that you and I will not have the same opinion on everything, but that doesn’t necessarily make you wrong and it doesn’t necessarily make me wrong.

Have a difference of opinion means we all live different lives, see things from different perspectives and therefore have a different outcome for what could potentially be the same scenario.

So let’s stop being upset that not everyone has the same opinion and embrace that each of us has a mind, a will and a heart that might be going in different directions due to our journey.
