As our children grow, we are faced with new challenges. We want to keep our children safe, but we don’t want to be overprotective. We want them to become independent and we also want them to respect our rules and limits.
Our role as parents changes as our children grown. When our children were babies, we were the center of their world. Now, many of our children’s experiences are centered outside of the home.
We continue to guide and nurture them as they learn to get along with their friends, neighbors and teachers.
