The work of being a loving parent is to create a safe, stable, and loving environment for our children to grow. Our children will be different. Different than their parents and different from each other.
We, as parents, must embrace these differences and nurture them to the best of our ability. We don’t have to tell them how or what to think. We just need to be a decent, kind, and loving role model.
We need to allow our children to explore all the rich and diverse possibilities that life and learning can provide. We don’t need to tell our children how to play, but we must provide time and opportunity for them to play.
Play is essential for brain and social and emotional development. We don’t need to tell them what and how to learn, we just need to make all learning available.
As we watch them play, they will learn, and they will reveal what they will become.
