Why is it that when our children age we feel ancient?
Life has changed drastically since he was born. As I was on my way to take care of some errands, I was reminiscing about what life was like back then.
And then I really began thinking about how important it is for us as parents, mentors, and leaders in our community to stay current.
Now that doesn't mean you have to give up your history and traditions just because other generations are.
But it's important to know and to understand what your child hears, what your child sees, and how your child engages in life throughout his/her years.
You have to stay at the forefront in order to know what's happening on the homefront.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Stay at the forefront!This is not an easy task and in actuality, it is very complicated because of how much is involved.
For instance, let's take getting a tablet. When is the best time to introduce a tablet to your child?
Well if you look at all the research, talk to all your friends, and then speak to your personal experts (i.e., doctor, counselor, teacher, etc.), you will get probably 20 different answers.
Ultimately, you have to set the rules that are best for your family and lifestyle.
However, it doesn't mean that you operate in the dark ages. You don't want to be murmuring, "I'm practically a dinosaur!"
What can you do to stay at the forefront?
- Be present where your child hangs out. If your child is on social media, you need to be too. You don't have to be an expert, but you need to know what they see and hear.
- Bury assumptions and ask. You need to be curious not a know-it-all. Most likely, your child will learn more because they are immersed in it.
- Be a role model for your child. You are the parent and can do what you want. However, make sure your child sees you abiding by your own rules.
You may feel like the days are long, but you don't have to be a dinosaur when it comes to living your everyday life.
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
