Follow up: Fortifying Our Families

​How did your week go?
 
Class member:  I questioned everything I did as a parent this week.  You also told us to testify of truth.  My daughter found out her best wasn’t good enough when she tried out for a team.  I was able to testify of her Divine Nature.
 
Class member:  I just want to say that coming last week filled my bucket.  I was a lot more patient and loving. 
 
They figured out their parenting style.  I didn’t ask you to change it, just be aware of it.
 
Class member:  I’m a ‘fly by the seat of my pants’ parent.
 
You are a reactive parent.  You react to the situations as they happen.  They do it and we react to it.  They are in charge of parenting.
 
Class member:  My husband and I were talking to our son and his friend.  We asked them what our parenting style was.  It was interesting to listen to them.  My son said I was a Cheerleader Mom.  Dad was quiet.  I think that means he listens well.  The other boy told us he was a lecturer Dad. 
 
It’s interesting when they are older to see what they think of you, but be brave before you ask.
 
Class member:  I think when I’m spiritual I’m on top of it.  When I’m having a hard time I’m all over the board.  Our biggest issue is 12 and she is super naïve.  We think my focus is the crazy anxiety that is affecting my daughter.
 
Homework last week was to look your parenting style and also choose one of the 5 fortifications and try to improve on it this week.
