CHILDREN:
We do have different responsibilities
to our children. We are financially
responsible for our children; we are
responsible for providing for their
material needs.
Our children need to be taught how to
help themselves, from tying their
shoes to making social plans. They
need consistent enforcement of
boundaries, once we've established
limits. They need a supportive,
nurturing environment in which to
grow.
But we are not responsible for
controlling our children. Contrary to
popular belief, controlling doesn't
work. Discipline and nurturing do
– if combined. We need to respond
to our children in a responsible way
and hold them accountable for their
actions at an age-appropriate level.
We can let our children have their
own process of living; we can have
our own process. And, we can take
care of ourselves during that process.
