SO VERY TRUE ā¤ļø

This is the most generous, self-less, loving act you can do as a parent!

Loving your child for who they are means letting go of expectations or how you imagined your child would be and seeing them for who they are!

Loving your child unconditional means loving them for who they are, no matter what!

When you love your child just as they are, you create space for so many amazing things to unfold plus your bond and relationship with your child will grow and deepen.

When you love your child just as they are, you surrender to who they are now and who they are becoming. Surrendering your expectations of your child makes it possible for you to really ā€œseeā€ them and to want to know them on a deeper level. Surrendering makes it possible to meet your child’s individual needs and meet them where they’re at at every stage in their development. By surrendering to who your child is you’ll find that this helps you be kinder to yourself as you will gain greater understanding of who you are, what your needs are and how to meet them. You’ll come to know that it’s not about pleasing others to fit who they want you to be but instead about being in a healthy loving relationship with yourself.

When you love your child just as they are, you know that their behavior doesn’t define them. You’ll understand that they need time to learn to control their emotions and behavior and need you to be a loving container that will hold without judgement. With negative behavior there’s often judgement and criticism which isn’t helpful to your child. With judgement there’s a feeling of being less than, of wanting to shrink and almost become invisible. But what you want is for your child to know how valued and important they are even when you have to hold firm boundaries because of their behavior.

When you love your child just as they are, they will be able to come to you out of trust and not fear. They trust that you will not shame them, that you will not judge them that you will understand or at least try your best to understand something they might have done that they now regret.

Thanksgiving Shows for Kids to Enjoy…
Do you have a favorite Thanksgiving show to watch with your kids?

11/22/2025

There are many ways you can show your child how much they mean to you - one way is to tell them that they are valuable, that they are needed and they are important, not only as a member of your family but also as a person who is special just as they are.

When you affirm your child with meaningful, positive words you nurture in them a sense of self-worth and self-love.

Your positive words also say to your child that they are important and worthy of so much love. That loving themselves is just as important.

When your child is able to love themselves just as they are, then they are free to become who they truly are.

Before your child can develop self-love, they need to be loved unconditionally. They also need to see you loving yourself just as you are. This is a beautiful way to cultivate a deep feeling of love in your child from the very beginning of their life.

You are your child’s first teacher. Your child learns first from what you do and who you are as a person. This means that you first have to love and affirm yourself because you can’t simply encourage self-love, you also have to be an example of self-love; you have to live it.

As parents, we have to talk ourselves up, not down. We have to affirm ourselves.
This is hard because for most of us this is the opposite of how we were raised. Nevertheless keep trying each and every day to love yourself even a little bit more than the day before.

Try to work on those parts of you that are difficult to change because you can grow and expand and while you’re growing remember to shower yourself with positive loving words.

When you are positive and loving you become the model of positivity and love. It begins with you!

Oh, SO important!!

Your words have a lasting affect on how your child feels about themselves.

Your words can build your child up and make them feel supported Or your words can knock them down.

Every time your child hears words that makes them feel like they shouldn’t show their feelings or that something is wrong with them because they didn’t do or behave in the right way they can become stuck in repeating the behaviors that’s causing you to use harsh words.

How you speak to your child has very real consequences.

If you were raised with harsh words for behavior as a child, then you could easily find yourself saying the same words to your child that were said to you.

It’s difficult to stop and change course. It’s difficult to stop but it is possible to say ā€œThis ends with meā€ because the words we say can be helpful instead of hurtful.

Change takes a lot of self-control and presence. But when you think about the negative effects of harsh words you’re more likely to put the effort into changing.

- Harsh words can harm a child’s self-esteem.

- Harsh words can cause your child to think negatively about themselves.
- Harsh words can make your child disappointed in themselves.
- Harsh words can become your child’s internal voice.
- Harsh words can make your child feel like they will never be enough.
- Harsh words can make your child afraid to make mistakes.

On the other hand, when you reframe what you say to your child with words that offer connection, support and encouragement you are building your relationship with them with positive speech.

- You expand how your child sees themselves.
- You encourage your child to reach beyond what they can do.
- You cultivate in them a sense of inner power.
- You help build their self-esteem and confidence.
- You allow your child to feel and show their feelings.
- Your child knows that you will support them through challenges.

When you reframe how you speak to your child, you nurture healthy self-confidence in them! Your words matter so speak words to your child that nurture belief in themselves!
