8 Principles To Teach Children for A Happy Life

Here are 8 principles that every parent needs to learn and teach their children so that they can live a happier and more successful life on their terms.

They Are A Soul With A Body

Always remember and teach your children that they are a soul with a body and not the other way around. Make sure they know that their soul is temporarily in the body that they have been given to fulfill their purpose.
 
Make them aware that they are a changeless eternal soul that never dies, unlike their body which will continue to change and die one day.
 
The more they live in alignment with the qualities of their soul which are love, peace, divinity, purity, joy, and abundance the happier they will feel.

They matter

Make them aware that they matter and are here right now for a reason or they would not be here. Make sure to teach your children that their soul has come here on this earth for a reason.
 
They are not an accident or a mistake. We live in a very intelligent universe and nothing is an accident. Help them learn ways to discover why they came on the earth right now by spending time in the quiet and listening to their soul’s whispers.

They are enough

Teach them to know without a doubt that they are enough no matter what they look like and have gone through in life. They can never lose their value, power, wisdom, and who they are.

Make sure they know that they are perfectly built for the purpose that they came here to fulfill. They have the right body, color, gender, and sexual orientation for their purpose despite what they may have been told by other people and society. 
 
Guide them to turn inward for their soul guidance and not get distracted by other people’s judgments and opinions about their lives and the purpose that they came here to fulfill.

They Have Unique Gifts

Know and convey to your children that they have been given their unique gifts and wisdom to help them fulfill their purpose which they are fully capable of fulfilling. They are smart enough to fulfill their purpose and do not have to let their school grades dictate how smart they feel. 
 
They have been given the inner wisdom to fulfill their purpose.  Help them turn inward and figure out what their unique gifts are, discover their purpose, and what problem they want to help others solve.

Their Life Has Infinite Possibilities

know and teach your children that their life has infinite possibilities.  There is nothing they cannot be, do and have. They are a powerful, wise soul that is an individualized expression of their creator. The more they align to their soul and serve others the more abundance their birthright they will receive.
 
Teach them that they are one hundred percent responsible for creating their own life through their identity, beliefs, perspective, thoughts, feelings, words they speak, behavior, actions, personality, and habits that they adopt.

Not To Live Life In Fear

Do not live your life in fear and teach your children the same.  They did not come to live a miserable life. Make sure they know that they are love by nature and fear is a sign that they are not in alignment with their soul. They are love, joy, and peace, not fear, anger, and jealousy.
 
Know and teach them that challenges will happen in life because they help us grow so that we can serve in a bigger and better way.
 
Make sure they know that life always happens for them and that they are not a victim. They are bigger than any problem that they may encounter.

The Importance Of Forgiving Yourself And Others

Learn and teach your children to forgive themselves, and others and not to live a life full of regrets from their past. Teach them to have compassion towards themselves because what they did in the past was what they were capable of doing in that moment.
 
They can now do better because they have grown instead of wasting the present moments regretting the past which is over, cannot be repeated and relived.
 
They must learn to forgive others because if they do not they may get blocked energy in their body which can cause further health issues.

Spirituality Is The Solution

Always remember and teach your children when they have low moments in their lives and are feeling down that faith and spirituality are always the answer to get them out of that state.
 
The more they learn to connect to their essence, and soul the more they will realize how powerful and wise they are and the happier they will feel.
 
They can Emerse themselves in gratitude and think of all the things that they have to be grateful for. It is one of the best ways to raise their energy and get out of any rut and then from that energy reach out and be of service to someone else. The act of service will help them get out of focusing on their problems.

In conclusion, you now know that parents can most definitely help their child’s mental health and wellbeing. You can begin by taking care of your own mental well-being and healing from your emotional wounds and traumas.

What Is A Heart-centered Entrepreneur?

I can confidently say that this world would be a much better place if we had more heart-centered entrepreneurs and businesses.
 
They can positively impact and change our world for the better for all of us and our future generations to come. So, what exactly is a heart-centered entrepreneur?
 
A heart-centered entrepreneur is someone who follows their heart, soul, and intuition (loving inner guidance) to create transformational products and services that are aligned to their purpose, and passion by utilizing their unique gifts and natural talents.
 
Next, let’s discuss 7 key mindset shifts heart-centered entrepreneurs need to be successful.

7 key Mindset Shifts For Successful Heart-centered Entrepreneurs

If you want to be successful as a heart-centered entrepreneur then you must make the following key mindset shifts.

Being Patient

You will need to be very patient as you navigate through the entrepreneurial journey. Your business will be one of the most reliable vehicle for your very own self-development and transformation.
 
As you learn and grow you may realize that what you thought was your business model may not be the right model for you to continue to follow.
 
Always remember that you do not have to aim for perfection. Take imperfect actions trust your timely guidance and be open to pivoting and changing your business model.
 
Any further clarity can only come when you take action based on your loving inner guidance. Once you show trust and take that first step you will be given the ability to see step two.

It is always okay to listen to your guidance and confirm whether you are on the right business path and whether your passion and purpose are in alignment with your soul’s purpose and calling that you came here to fulfill.

Use Your Natural Talents To Serve

Learn to use your strengths, natural talents, and unique skills that you have been blessed with to serve others and fulfill your life purpose. You have a responsibility to serve others with the privileged gifts that you have been given by your creator.
 
You always have to honor and listen to your inner wisdom and guidance to create your business your way despite what you may have learned from the mentors that you may have been following.

Have An Abundance Mindset

Always have an abundance mindset and never try to sell someone something that they do not need because you are desperate to make money. Only sell to people what you believe and know would help transform their lives and make them better. 
 
Always remember you are not meant to serve everybody because some people will not resonate with you, your message, passion, and purpose.
 
Abundance is your birthright so it is not necessary to compete with other similar businesses. Learn to collaborate with other business owners who also have been blessed with their own unique gifts and same purpose as you. Refer people that you cannot serve to them.  
 
Together we will be able to serve a lot more people and can make a bigger positive impact in the world.

Choose What Problem You Want To Solve

Examine your own life, who you used to be before your transformation, and the problems that you have been able to solve for yourself. What you will discover will help you decide which problem you want to help others solve. 
 
Think about your childhood and what you enjoy doing, what things come naturally to you, and follow those as your clues to realize what unique gifts and natural talents you are meant to use to do the work you were born to do and fulfill your purpose.

Make Marketing And Selling Your Duty

It is your duty to market and sell your transformation products and services. If no one knows about your products and services that can help them transform their lives then you are doing them a disservice by not making them aware.
 
There are a lot of people who need your products and services.  Do not doubt that you are qualified to help others and sell your transformational products and services because you have solved these problems for yourself.

Know It Is Okay To Make Money

Know without a doubt that it is okay for you to make money by adding value to other people’s lives. Money is not evil. It is a tool that will help you sustain your mission, purpose, and your chosen lifestyle.
 
Being obsessed with money and forcing people to buy products and services that they do not need or are not good for them is bad. Money is an exchange of value. It is okay for you to make the money because the more you make the more you can give endlessly.

You can give money without any limits however your time to physically serve is limited. Making money is not unspiritual, or greedy. Make all the money you can so that you can make a bigger impact in the world endlessly.

Earn Blessings

Always aim to earn blessings along with money in your business. Know without a doubt that your transaction is not done once you sell something to someone and they pay you.
 
The transaction continues every time they use your product or service and they either feel thankful and send you blessings or realize the product or service is not useful to them and think and send you bad thoughts and energy.
 
Make sure that the money that you make and feed your family with always carries good energy.

In conclusion, you now know that a heart-centered entrepreneur is someone who follows their heart, soul, and intuition (loving inner guidance) to create transformational products and services that are aligned with their purpose, and passion by utilizing their unique gifts and natural talents.
 
The mindset shifts required for success as a heart-centered entrepreneur are being patient, using your natural talents to serve others, having an abundance mindset, choosing what problem to solve, marketing and selling your duty, knowing it is okay to earn money as an exchange of value and make sure to earn blessings along with money.
 
I hope you will make these mindset shifts in your business because they will benefit you and share these with anybody you know who is running their own Purpose driven business.

Relationships are a very important part of us living our very best fulfilling life however it is not possible to get along with everyone that we come across all the time.

You will find some people annoying because they do not share your life perspective, values, ethics, and morals. The reason you feel this way is because you believe that everyone ought to be the way you are which is the right way to be. 
 
People can’t be exactly like you are when they have not had the same life experience as you, they don’t have your identity, personality, beliefs, thoughts, feelings, behavior, and habits.
 
They also may not be okay because of their own life experiences, wounds, and traumas which they may not be aware of or they may not have had the opportunity to heal.

It is very hard not to get upset and to be grateful for those people that we find annoying and do not like to associate or deal with. Here are seven reasons to be grateful for people who annoy you.

Increase Your Ability To Hear Your Soul

Annoying people make it necessary for you to walk away, spend some time alone in the quiet, examine and ask why are you attracting people like that in your life, and why are you getting triggered by them.
 
They also help increase your chances of hearing your soul’s whispers and guidance in the quiet instead of listening to your ego’s screams whenever you are in a very distracted setting.

Guide You To A More Aligned Life

Annoying people guide you to live a more aligned life. When you get quiet and start listening to your soul more you will master your energy and stay true to yourself and live a more authentic life, soul-aligned, and empowered life.
 
Living an authentic soul-aligned life means aligning with your soul’s qualities some which are which are peace, love, joy, purity, divinity, and abundance.

Help You Master An Inner-driven Life

When you take the opportunity to practice staying true to yourself and not reacting to an annoying person you will be empowered to be emotionally independent.
 
You will become a master at living an inner-driven life instead of letting the outer circumstances and annoying people influence and direct how you live your life.
 
You will become better able to pause when annoyed by people, maintain your freedom, and learn to respond instead of losing control, reacting instantly, and giving people power over your you and your life.

Help You Decrease Ego-driven Behaviors

An annoying person will help you be aware of, control, and decrease ego-driven behavior and quickly align to your authentic soul-aligned true self. 
 
Your ego will always scream and guide you to behave in alignment to it like retaliating and screaming louder verses your soul which will gently whisper your loving guidance to you to behave in accordance with your true essence and soul’s qualities.

Help You Master Forgiveness

An annoying person will help you practice exercising your forgiveness muscles. When you begin to live life as your true authentic aligned self you will find it easier to forgive others.
 
When you cannot forgive other people, you end up harming yourself. You create stuck energy in your body which can then possibly lead to other serious harmful health issues.
 
When the energy in your body does not flow it then blocks all the guidance, and abundance from coming through and eventually prevents you from living your very best fulfilling purposeful life.

Enable You To Grow And Transform

Annoying people also help you grow, transform, and become a better person so that you can serve in a bigger and better way.
 
The faster you can figure out why you are attracting annoying people in your life, where you are misaligned and not being your true self the faster you can change it and get aligned.

Do a quick check and see what is your current identity, perspective, beliefs, thoughts, feelings, speech, behavior, personality, and habits. 
 
You are a powerful soul and so there is nothing that you cannot be, do, and have. You are completely empowered to create and live your best life of infinite possibilities. You will find as you grow you will get faster from being affected to aligning to your soul.

Act As A Catalyst For Change

Always remember even an annoying tyrannical person in your life is serving a purpose. They help you feel emotions that act as your guide and catalyst for you to transform or recognize a different opportunity and change some aspect of your life like a job, or the physical location of where you live so that you can live your purposeful life and serve people you are meant to serve.

How Does Spirituality Help Mental Health?

I believe all problems and challenges can be solved by living a spiritual life and having regular spiritual practice.
 
Spirituality is always where I find my strength and solutions to my life challenges. Here are six ways spirituality helps mental health.

Makes You Realize How Powerful You

When you live a spiritual life and have a regular, nurturing spiritual well-being practice that you do every single day you will realize who you are and where you have come from.
 
You are on this earth however you are not of this earth. You are a soul (changeless and eternal) that is currently in a body temporarily.
 
You are not a body with a soul you are a soul with a body. You have come from your very powerful creator. Your Creator’s light and power are within you. 
 
There are no issues that your soul is not empowered to deal with.  You are a divine, wise, powerful loving, soul that is here to grow and serve others.
 
The more you connect to and listen to your soul the stronger you will get and the fewer mental health issues you will have to face. 
 
Have a regular spiritual practice that you do in the morning whether it’s meditation, prayers, reading a religious book, listening to something spiritual, or watching videos that are talking about spirituality.

Allows Connection To The Real You

A regular Spiritual practice will guide and help you to sit in the quiet, connect, and turn to your soul for your solutions to all challenges and mental health issues.
 
You will be guided to align to your authentic soul’s qualities which is your true essence. Some of these qualities are love, peace, compassion, purity, divinity, joy, and not anger, jealousy, depression, and anxiety.

Helps You Access Loving Inner Guidance

Your spiritual practice will also allow you access and hear your loving inner and creator’s guidance which is always available to you.
 
Learn to turn inward because all your wisdom, answers, solutions, and healing from any mental health issues are within you. 
 
You can also turn to your creator, ask, and listen to the loving guidance by asking why you’re feeling the way you’re feeling. What are your emotions trying to tell you?
 
Have you formed the wrong identity, and beliefs, thinking thoughts that don’t serve you, saying and doing things that are not aligned to your soul, and helping you fulfill your purpose?
 
Your creator has blessed you with a sacred mind and free will to navigate through life however your creator is always available to guide you. You just have to sit in silence, connect, and ask for help.

Helps You Realize You Are Bigger Than Any Problem

You will begin to realize that your soul is wise, divine powerful, and bigger than any problem that you may be facing. You are a powerful, wise, individualized expression of your creator whose powers are within you. 
 
Do not let anybody ever tell you who you are and what your limits are. Don’t let society, your family, friends, and peers tell you who you are. Always remember
 
Your true identity is that you are a soul with a body and you’re powerful just like your creator. Do not compare yourself to anybody because you are here for a reason and purpose that is different from why others are here.

Make You Aware Can Tune In To Inner Power

When you have a regular spiritual practice you will know without a doubt that you can always turn inward for any solution to your problem. 
 
Your wisdom is within you and so are the answers for whatever you need to fulfill your purpose. Don’t get distracted by what society and family tell you matters and is important.
 
Know that you can turn inward for all your solutions you have the wisdom available within you to deal with any mental issues so learn to connect to the soul and listen to its guidance.
 
Your soul whispers while the ego screams so you will have to create a quiet space to hear the wisdom from yourself the more you hear it the more it’ll talk to you. 
 
There’s no problem that is not solvable by you figure out the solution it’s within you the wisdom is within you and it helps somebody else solve that problem as well let’s make mental health issues think of the past
 
You did not come here to waste your life by having regrets, feeling depressed because of your past mistakes, and being anxious about your unknown future.
 
Do not let someone tell you that you don’t measure up to what society wants you to be You’re not here to please the society you’re here to help people who need your help.

Improves Your Confidence And Self-esteem

You will be able to improve your confidence and your self-esteem when you live a spiritual life and have regular spiritual practice.
 
You will know without a doubt that you are here for a reason and purpose or you wouldn’t be here. You are here to do your creator’s work and fulfill your soul’s calling.
 
You matter, are enough, special just the way you are. You have a perfect body, sex, and color and were built for the work that you are here to do.
 
Don’t let anybody tell you that you are not enough or not measuring up to what society wants you to be. Don’t let anybody tell you that you don’t dress right because you have your unique style or that you are not smart because you get a D in school.
 
You’ve been given perfect unique gifts and wisdom to fulfill your purpose which the school may not be measuring at all.
 
Focus your energy on serving others powerfully. Discover your purpose and unique gifts by looking at clues like what comes naturally to you, what people come to you for advice, and what people always compliment you for.
 
Always remember you are not an accident otherwise you wouldn’t be here.  You belong and are fine just the way you are.
 
Figure out What problems have you solved for yourself and serve others who are having the same problems. Live your best life and mental health issues will become a thing of the past for you.

In conclusion, you now know that spirituality most definitely can help improve our mental, and physical wellbeing and health and overall quality of life.

Can A Single Parent Raise Successful Children?

I am sending a lot of love to all the single parents out there who are raising their children on their own. The single parenting journey has its many challenges and is not easy.
 
It is a journey that comes with many physical, emotional, and mental challenges and has its fair share of many ups and downs. Can a single parent raise successful children?
 
A single parent is equally capable of raising successful children in comparison to a two-parent household provided that they stay strong, are committed to doing so, and make their relationship with their children a priority.
 
Single parents can often be more successful. They are more relaxed and confident when it comes to making important household decisions because they do not have to consult with and hear anyone else’s opinion.

They have a closer relationship with their children because they have more time and energy available to invest in spending quality uninterrupted time in the absence of a partner who also can fight for their attention.
 
So, you may be wondering what are some tips that a single parent can use to make raising successful children their own reality. Let’s discuss that next.

8 Tips For Single Parenting Success

Implement the tips that we are about to discuss and you can create a beautiful environment and experience for your children who are growing up in a single-parent household.
 
Here are eight tips that would be helpful for any single parent.

Believe Your Children Will Be Okay

Be kind, and have a lot of compassion and love towards yourself. Believe without a doubt that your children will be fine and know that you are not going to shortchange your children in any way. 

Life always happens for you, not to you. You are not a victim so stop asking yourself why is this happening to me.
 
Learn to look for blessings and lessons from every challenging situation that you go through in life. You are also always given what you can handle.
 
Know that no matter what everybody else tells you can raise your children successfully on your own. You create your life from your identity, beliefs, thoughts, feelings, behavior, and habits.
 
You will eventually get to a point where you’ll have gratitude for your single-parent journey, what you had to go through, and who you have become as a result of this experience.

Be Grateful

Start a daily practice of gratitude and teach your children to practice gratitude as well. Do it first thing in the morning, in the evening, and any other time that you feel the need to raise your energy and vibration. 
 
Make gratitude part of your regular life. You can also do it as a family at dinner time, and bedtime with your children.  We all have a lot of things to be thankful for no matter what we are going through in life.
 
Gratitude will help you change your vibration, who you are, and the energy of your home for the better.

Have A Daily Spiritual Practice

Take care of yourself and have a daily spiritual practice to stay grounded and strong instead of turning to addictions that are not good for you like drinking and smoking.  Say prayers, meditate, listen, or read a spiritual religious book.
 
Connect to your creator and ask for guidance because that’s where your power will come from.  Remember you are a powerful divine soul that is having a temporary human experience. You always have access to your creator’s strength, intelligence, and power.

Trust Everything Will Be okay

Trust that your kids will be okay. When you work on your spirituality, energy, and vibration you will be able to impact your children positively just by being in their presence.
 
Also, trust that you have been blessed and trusted with your children by your creator for a reason. They are here to fulfill their purpose and therefore have the wisdom within them to fulfill their soul’s calling.
 
They are a soul with a body as well. They can be an older Soul than yours that is here for the benefit of your soul’s growth. Make sure you tell them how powerful they are, who they really and where they have come from.

Encourage Open Communication

It is very important to have an open and honest age-appropriate communication policy in your household and to make sure that no subject is off the table with your children. Make them feel comfortable to come to you and talk to you about anything.
 
Make yourself emotionally and physically available to them. They should feel comfortable coming to you, someone who has had more life experience with any questions than a friend. Make them feel heard, seen, understood, and accepted.

Show Affection

Make sure to have a deep emotional bond, show affection towards your children, and make them feel loved. Make sure they know that just because they did something wrong or disappointing does not mean that you do not love them.

Have A Healthy Way Of Resolving Conflict

Implement a healthy way to talk about and resolve any conflicts between you. There will be things that you don’t agree upon so is important that you have a process to work on it.
 
Remember your kids are here to teach you as much as you are here to teach them. We are all equal souls despite the bodies that we are in and we are here to learn, grow and serve

Have Family Routines And Goals

Make sure you laugh and have fun together by having routines, rituals, and goals as a family.
 
For example, saying prayers together every evening, scheduling frequent game nights, playing a sport, vacation once or twice a year, having a big Sunday dinner, and having a family meeting once a week.
 
These routines, rituals, and goals will allow your family to be more united, and close and increase your emotional bond towards each other.

In conclusion, you now know that a single parent is equally capable of raising successful children in comparison to a two-parent household provided they stay strong and committed and make their relationship with their children a priority.
 
Single parents can often be more successful. They are more relaxed and confident when it comes to making important household decisions because they do not have to consult and hear anyone else’s opinion about it. They have a closer relationship with their children because they have more time and energy available to invest in spending quality
 
Eight helpful tips to be successful as a single parent are to believe your children will be okay, be grateful, have a daily spiritual practice, trust everything will be okay, encourage open communication, show affection, have a healthy way to resolve conflict and have family routines, rituals, and goals.

Have Goals Together

Come up with and have an exciting vision and goals for your relationship. Make sure you have goals and habits that are always moving you toward achieving your vision and goals. Review, measure, and check your progress frequently.

Laugh Often

Give Each Other Space

Respect and value each other’s independence. It is healthy to trust and give each other space to be alone daily or with friends occasionally. Take some time to meet up with your friends as frequently as you decide that works for you as a couple.

Balance Housework

Decide your housework responsibilities based on what works for you as a couple instead of letting society or anyone else dictate what you need to do in your household based on your gender.

Why Do Parents Never Say Sorry?

Most Parents feel a lot of gratitude for the blessing, trust, and responsibility placed on them to be a parent. This role, however, is not easy and comes with a lot of challenges, and therefore no one is perfect at it.
 
It is very normal for people to possibly make mistakes in their parenthood journey. If that is the case then why do parents never say sorry?
 
A lot of parents do not like taking accountability for their wrong actions and saying sorry to their children because they have been led to believe and feel that they always know better since they are what they consider to be in a superior role to their children.
 
They feel apologizing takes away the authority and respect that they always deserve from their child. They were also most probably brought up by parents who abided by the same mentality and rules.
 
It is important to note that we are all equal souls that are in a human body temporarily despite our role while here on earth. We are all here to learn from each other or we would not be in each other’s lives.
 
There is a possibility that your child’s soul is older than yours and is here to teach you something and help you grow.
 
So, you may be wondering, what are some things that all parents need to be reminded to say to their children more regularly and comfortably? Let’s discuss that next.

8 Things Parents Need To Say To Their Child

What parents say to their children has such a big impact on them and it affects their self-esteem, confidence, image, and their adulthood. Here are eight things all parents need to be able to say to their children.

I Love You

“I love you” needs to be heard by your child every single day and especially when you are upset and disappointed by their actions and behavior.
 
Make sure to communicate and tell them that I am upset at the moment because of what you did however that does not mean I do not love you.  Your child may feel that you do not love them anymore because they made a mistake and did something wrong.
 
Make sure they do not feel that they have to follow your agenda to be loved. Always remember that your child is a wise, powerful, peaceful, loving, pure, and divine equal soul that is here for a purpose.
 
They have been given unique gifts by their creator to fulfill their purpose. Love them regardless of whether they are following the path that you want them to follow or not.

I Believe In You

Tell your child I believe in you repeatedly. Help them identify, recognize and learn to honor their strengths. Celebrate each of your children individually and know that they all have the unique gifts that have been given to them for the fulfillment of their purpose. 
 
Do not compare your child with others. Accept and acknowledge their uniqueness and whatever accomplishments they have regardless of whether other people and society value them or not.

I Am Proud Of You

Tell your child that you are proud of who they are and the effort that they put into doing something towards achieving their desired result.
 
For example, you could say I am proud of the effort that you put into studying and the marks that you got as a result. The actual grade should not dictate how proud you feel because they do not determine how smart your child is.

I Am Here For You

Make sure you tell your child I am here for you and make them feel loved, guided, and safe. Make them feel heard, seen, understood, and accepted by you. Spend lots of quality time with each of your child. 

You Are Capable

Make your child aware of who they are which is a soul with a body, where they have come from, their inner power, and what they are capable of. Their life has infinite possibilities and they’re capable of doing anything that they want in this world that is alignment with their soul.
 
They have to believe in themselves because it doesn’t matter what somebody says about you that’s their opinion. Teach them to believe in themselves because of who they are which is a soul with a body created in your creator’s image.

I Am Sorry

Be a good role model to your child and take accountability for your wrong actions, and behavior and say I am sorry to your child when justified.
 
It will encourage your child to do the same when they make a mistake. It is okay for your child to know that parents sometimes make an error and project their anger onto them or have an overly exaggerated reaction. 

I Am Listening

Make sure your child feels their point of view is always heard rather than feeling like they are always talked down to. Remember you are here to learn from them as much they are here to learn from you as an equal soul. 

I Don’t Know

If your child asks you something that you do not know the answer to put your ego aside and feel free to tell them I don’t know the answer to your question however let’s do some research together and find the answer.

Your child must be aware that parents are not perfect and do not have all the answers so that they do not feel pressured to be perfect especially when they are parents themselves someday. 

In conclusion, you now know that a lot of parents do not like taking accountability for their wrong actions and saying sorry to their children because they have been led to believe and feel that they always know better and are in a superior role to their children.
 
They feel apologizing takes away the authority and respect that they always deserve from their child. They were also most probably brought up by parents who abided by the same mentality and rules.
 
You also learned every parent needs to be able to say I love you, I believe in you, I am proud of you, I am here for you, you are capable, I am sorry, I am listening and I do not know.
 
I hope you will begin to say these eight things that you learned that every parent needs to be able to say to their child so that they can have a better adulthood, confidence, self-esteem, and image and help them raise their own confident kids someday and make this world a better place for all of us.
