Do you ever get tired of following rules, pain-stakingly forcing your children to follow them, only for another child to be able to skip right through the policies - with your child watching them do what he or she wasn't allowed to do?
YES!!!!!!!!! ALWAYS!!!!!!!!!!!! Well- that's all right. They are learning opportunities, I guess- to show your kids that not everyone follows the rules all the time, but we shouldn't be followers of THEM, we should do what we know is right!
“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
