“in the Western world we focus far too much on achievement. Parenting is not about achieving and it is not about ‘right’ or ‘wrong’. Instead we can think of parenting as an almost endless series of opportunities to shift our thinking & our behavior to bring about a change in our operating paradigm; our way of viewing the world.” – Dr Bob Jacobs, author of ‘Perfect Parents, Perfect Children’
Reflection on how we parent allows for self growth as parents, it also makes room for self growth within ourselves as human beings. Learning empathetic understanding, compassion & kindness towards our children follows through also in our everyday lives, thus creating more peaceful homes, relationships & friendships, ultimately creating peace within our world.
