Life is
beset with difficult times, disappointments, failures, injustices, sorrows and
regrets; such are part of life. Believe it or not; adversities can actually
make one stronger. When confronted:
Assess the situation
Work through both the emotional and
other aspects of the situation
Find solutions – make the best
choice(s)
Include your child/ren – depending on
age, his/her capabilities and circumstances explain, discuss and get their feedback;
do not underestimate your child/ren’s level of perception)
Find a silver lining and understand that the situation can and usually does get
better
Do not give up hope, faith or belief
in one’s self
Parents,
you set the tone and example; you teach your child/ren valuable lessons through
and by your actions. When you keep hope alive you encourage your child/ren to
do the same. Do not dwell on adversity or adverse situations 24/7. Even if it
is solely for the child/ren’s sake engage in something different for a brief
moment; sometimes you can gain a different perspective by doing so. April is National Kite Month; make or
purchase a kite and may I suggest you get your child/ren and Go Fly a Kite! I
got mine for the inexpensive purchase price of $2.99. Keep hope alive in your
child/ren.
