A Loving Way ~ How I Parent Makes a Difference!

Conscious parenting is simply the art of awareness. When your kids are acting out of character, rather than jumping on the behavior, ask them questions. Find out what’s not working in their world. They may be struggling with something. They may be tired. They may have stress you are not aware of. Could it be school starting? Get to know your child. Ask from the heart, and then listen from the heart. Be a conscious parent. It makes everything so much more fun! (Traci Gaffney, www.alovingway.com, 1-800-647-1171.)
