As parents do we ever consider how our teenagers/children feel about things. Do we ask them questions ? Do we listen to them ? Are we sticking to the old way of doing things where a child should stay in a child’s place even if it means they will hide their feelings ? Tune in to Nosugaondeerim.com and listen to my baby girl and her friends talk about us as parents. Whew the transparency and honesty. Trust me it was mind blowing and mind boggling, but I think as parents we need to hear them out , understand them , but we as parents must also provide structure and love . Truth be told children don’t always know what’s best for them. As parents we won’t always be liked by our kids, and that’s okay as long as they know everything is done in love . This parenting life doesn’t come with a rule book or manual .So if you are doing the best you can’t despite criticism keep going ! Disclaimer .
