Parenting with a Purpose
Overall, parents have a desire to create a loving
and nurturing atmosphere in their homes. Parenting, in and of itself,
is intended to be very fulfilling. At times, however, stress, frustration,
marital struggles, special needs, outside influences and an overall lack
of parenting skills can leave parents feeling discouraged and defeated.
Are you looking to expand your parenting skills? Are you seeking greater
fulfillment as a parent? Do you desire to be the best possible parent
that you can be?
Consider the following:
- Do you ever wonder what your role as a parent is in today's society?
- Do you feel there is more to parenting than what you know, have experienced or have had modeled for you?
- Do you struggle with guilt and failure as a parent?
- Do you feel you have to be Super Mom or Wonder Dad?
- Is it difficult to make changes on your own despite the tips you have learned?
- Do you feel like your parenting potential is being subverted or blocked?
- Do you experience blended family dynamics?
- Do you yearn for creative ways to connect with your kids?
- Is your home a safe place in which your kids can grow and develop?
- Or, do you feel you're just plain stuck in a negative parenting cycle?
For a more comprehensive evaluation of your parenting strengths try the
following assessments.
