Parenting is a life of service.

Generously & continuously pouring out love in many forms to your children.

There are times where it is easy to fall into the trap of pushing your child into something YOU desire for them. With that comes the expectation that they take to it and enjoy it the same. Perhaps it is a way to balance the preverbal scales.

As Jerod wrote in his recent Encouragement Article - Bolster Your Children's Interests:
"I think it would be a very cool legacy for my kids to take certain paths in my life. To have my son or daughter play a sport I played, or join the Marines. It would be a great legacy experience. I could guide them with first hand experience and share with them the similar shared walk we would have. My next thought was who do I want that situation more for? Myself, or my child?"

Spend time with your children.
Learn their interests, their dreams, their desires.
Then walk along with them, providing the love and support required.
