PARENTS & PARENTING

The challenge of parenting brings out our weak points as well as our strengths!

I don't give him much chance in resisting her winning ways!
I don't give him much of a chance in resisting that cheeky face!

In addition to personal and professional development for all this site is for three groups in particular; managers, teachers – and parents.

Many of the  1000+ themes on this site are relevant to you as a parent or a ‘parent-to-be’ – or to your personal or professional development.

In brief the model here – my SunWALK PDS (People Development System) sees parenting as maximizing the energy that flows through each of those you parent – and through the family as a whole, with each having a range of rights and responsibilities that help maximise the flow of the life-force.

The parent’s job is to nurture growth and development through keeping that flow of energy maximised – within a context of unconditional love and appropriate discipline.

That means paying attention to the needs of the individual as well as to the family as a whole.

Your parenting is as good as your self-parenting and that is as good as the personal development you’ve achieved – including transforming any negative created by imperfections in the parenting you received.

The good news is that on this site are ideas that you can put to work straight away.

More to come soon – why not use the SEARCH button or the Categories/Index.
