TIP OF THE WEEK- By Lillian Reekie
TIP 10-
Show your children you are their biggest supporter; their number 1 FAN!!*
Regardless of what our children say, do or how they act we have to show them that we love them unconditionally and will not judge them or their actions. If our children know we will not judge them they will be more likely to confide in us and tell us what is happening in their lives as they will not fear being judged, criticised or yelled at.
Regardless of who else is putting them down we have to be their ROCK, the constant that will always be there to love and support them through any challenge.
* Regardless of their age (5,15 or 25)our children need to feel our support and that we are batting for them. We have to remain strong and supportive throughout ALL challenges (easier said than done I know). But the bigger the challenge the more support they will need. Any challenge can be rectified if you work as a team with your child. Work against them and the likely hood is the challenge will escalate. They will then look to others for support.
Did you know this is how and why lots of kids get involved in gangs and various groups? Because they were looking for somewhere to belong, someone or something that would make them feel important even if it is a negative influence!!! Food for thought.
