How Children Raise Parents: The Art of Listening to Your Family

Parenting with Humility...We often realize that we learn as much from our children as they learn from us. So why dont parents approach the task of child-rearing as a learning experience, rather than a mandate to make sure their kids succeed in life?

To reduce the pressure and enjoy greater closeness in your family, turn your parenting upside-down by allowing God to use your children to help you grow up. Imagine what would happen if you began to prize what youre being taught by your childrens quirks, failures, and normal childhood dilemmas, rather than worrying about whether youre doing everything right as a parent. Now you can let go of the pressure to make sure your children succeed, and instead learn to grow into spiritual maturity by listening to your children.
