Guest guest Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 Well, how do you feel with it? I hear " good " , sometimes. And when you don't feel good with it, see if you hold an untrue thought about what's best for her. Is it better to teach her how to do it " right " (your way), or is it better to show her that you love her, no matter what? How did you learn what is best for you? Did you memorize your mother's rules and got happines that way? Or do you sometimes ask yourself what you want, and is it different, sometimes, of what your mother said? (Or your father, for that matter) What we call " teaching " is simply sharing our stories. And our children don't believe everything we say, that's one thing we can learn from them. They see what we do and how we live. Try to " know better than her " and notice when you get out of your integrity. For the shake of " knowing better " . And look at what it costs you. I wouldn't try to teach her how she should live. I'd rather show her what a great, rich, full and happy life looks like. If my rules are so great, let me follow them. If they really are, it'll attract. Don't keep your daughter from learning a lesson, her way.
