Your job as parent is to become unnecessary
Posted by Samantha on July 27, 2011 in Thought for the day |
Do you want your children to behave only when you’re around, or do you want them to have the self-discipline to conduct themselves wisely whether you’re there or not? Â I’ve always believed that parents are not for leaning upon, but rather exist to make leaning unnecessary.
