Parenting and to find that medium with your children

Hello coffee lovers, Now this time we need something strong guys so lets get a double shot of whatever coffee type you are getting today. Conversations that for some parents may make you think twice. I know that kids these days try to understand faster than us grown folks did at our time. Their minds are more developed somehow or maybe they have more questions than we used to have. And have easier access, especially online. What we need to do is find a middle Ground on looking not only through our lens but our children as well. Let them know they can come to us. Many children have been committing sucide and hurting themselves because they cannot go to us(Parents) because they are scared of how parents will react. Which is unstandable because we are taught to be tough with our children so they will survive in this world.

I know it's hard to understand our children these days and what they are feeling.We do not want our children to grow up nor want to imagine they have any issues because you were strict enough to make sure they don’t have to worry like you did when you were their age. But sometimes we forget that we were kids as well and we have to think and look through their eyes. They feel like the world is ending and we should know how it feels because we were them at one time. Yet it may not be the same story as yours but it does impact them just as much as it did for us when we were their age. We have to find a way to be on a medium with our kids knowing that you don’t want them to be doing the wrong thing but we also want them to learn lessons and be able to come to us when they can not handle what issues or things they are going through. Sometimes it may be easy as school and grades, but we won't know until we find a way to respond to them correctly,where they feel comfortable enough to talk . I am a parent of two and they have two different personalities. I can’t treat them the same because they are two completely different people. You have to talk to them in their language. Here are some things to think about when you're about to talk to them because you are worried or you just don’t know. 1 ) Let them know you are listening 2) Don’’t judge them(minor or major problems) 3)Tell them you care and you will be there for them no matter what. 4) let them hear “I love you “ These are starters to get you to a medium place with your child because they are growing faster and faster these days and soon they won’t even need you but know you are there even when they don’t need you. Until next conversation i will see you latte #coffeelovers #life #teenagers #love #bloggers #listen #let them talk #parents
