The Essential Elements of Parenting
Manage episode 436818160 series 2842157
Many new parenting styles create an imbalance in the child/parent relationship.
When we adopt a parenting style that is child-led and emotion driven, we do a disservice to our children by hyper focusing on how they feel and what they want rather than teaching them how to think and how to feel and express their feelings in an appropriate way while learning the good habits or virtues that are the foundation of thinking, feeling, and acting.
In Virtue Based Parenting, we
1. Recognize that we are the leaders of our children and that we are their first and most important teachers.
2. We seek self-growth in virtue in order to better model those virtues for our children and as a point of connection with each child.
3. We are proactive in establishing our parenting and home life goals and we communicate our expectations clearly and consistently. We react calmly and thoughtfully to our children’s misbehavior seeking ultimately to fulfill our long-term goals rather than simply implementing short-term solutions.
4. We focus on formation through lived virtues, understanding that virtue, or good habits, is the foundation of excellent moral, spiritual, and practical goals.
