Navigating Family Life with Devices
As parents, we know one of the challenges that we face in helping our youth navigate healthy boundaries is with cell phones. The question isn't "if" my child will have a cell phone but "when." For all of us, the goal is to become a well-rounded person who can coexist with technology, not be ruled by it. Of course, as parents, we need to model this and guide our children through the process. For suggestions, tools, and a link to a Teen Cell Phone Contract (in the 3rdlink), click below for more on this important subject. screen-time-challenges.html family-life-and-cell-phones.html technology-as-a-tool-to-strengthen-self-control.html |

Parenting is not for wimps!
In spite of all the advancements that we have made over the past 50 years-sending people into space, manipulating DNA, being able to communicate with someone on the other side of the world instantaneously and so much more-we are often reduced to a state of utter helplessness and frustration by the tears, tantrums, and defiance of a child, our child. Parenting is one of the most rewarding and yet challenging roles that one can have, handed to us with very little preparation.
Wait-there's good news!
The good news is that we can all learn to be great parents-to care and love our children (birth to adults) and nourish them emotionally and spiritually. As a parent educator and coach, my role is to work with you to deepen and strengthen your relationship with your child. When we unconditionally care about our children's happiness, they feel a powerful connection to us as their parents. Every moment of unconditional acceptance creates a living thread between us and our children and these threads weave a powerful bond that fills them with a genuine and lasting happiness.
