The real treasure parents can give to their children are HABITS.
Making my children habitual of doing things is the most challenging part of my parenthood journey so far.
I realise that making kids habitual needed me to have been habitual of doing things in the first place. This manifests in the way I could make them habitual in doing things that I'm habitual at. The places where i'm not habitual, I struggle to make kids habitual of those. Fortunately, my husband is habitual at few complimenting things, hence we are able to cope up..
.
Wife and husband coming from different families and upbringings help, provided they understand the importance of giving diverse experiences and exposure to children. And then, give freedom to children to decide what they want to pursue.
Life is all about making choices. The ability to decide is the greatest strength we can give to our children. We may like to be the most influential voices in their lives, but not to forget that we are only enabling their journey and we don't own their journey. They own their lives. They own their journey.
