Parenting 101

3/30/2017

​Today is my late father’s birthday. I’ve been wrestling lately with the parenting I’ve seen going on with the friends of my teenager. I thought I would compile a list of important things a parent can do when a child gets in trouble.

  1. First, the child needs to know that you love them no matter what.
  2. They need to know that you stand with them and will help them through the problem they have created.
  3. There will be consequences. You care enough to make sure they understand that.
  4. They need to know that as a parent when they get into trouble you will:
 
  • dress up,
  • show up,
  • stand up, help them to
  • own up and
  • face up to their actions and consequences because that’s how you
  • raise up a child to an adult with integrity.
 

I think that just about covers it.
