TODAY'S eTIP(TM): Parenting without Being Part of a Pair
You're a single parent trying to do the best job possible raising
your kids. In the process, it's only natural to stumble now and
then. Single parents often make these common mistakes. Forewarned
is forearmed!
* Pressing your child to heap more and more onto his
plate.
* Encouraging your kids to be your private detectives.
* Labeling your kids.
* Denying yourself a social life.
* Allowing your kids' traits to ring your bell.
* Getting sucked into power plays.
* Being a poor role model.
* Expecting your children to deliver messages to your ex.
* Allowing your kids to con you into buying things for
them.
* Failing to establish boundaries in your children's
behavior.
* Refusing to consider professional therapy for yourself
or your children.
Raising kids is an art - not a science - so try not to
overreact to every little crisis. If you do, you wear yourself
out physically and emotionally. Here's a great word of advice:
Choose your battles wisely! That way you have energy left over
for the things that really matter. And here's a word of
encouragement: Messing up once in a while isn't fatal. You can
learn from mistakes and go on from there.
