Raising Decision Makers

By admin · Monday, June 14th, 2010

Parenting isn’t easy. We don’t get a manual. It’s the ultimate in “on-the-job-training.”

Here’s a little something for you to think about. One of our primary objectives is to raise children who become fully functioning and competent adults. Decision making is important in this objective. Therefore, we must think about allowing our children to make decisions for themselves. If we make all of their decisions, how will they know that they can trust themselves to make them when it’s crunch time?

Let your kids make decisions, and mistakes.
