These
few weeks have taught me other things I never knew about my kids; from the
moment they came back to me, it was like I had never really been with them. They
were totally different from the last time we were together. I pondered on how
to deal with them, because their behavior was over the roof; after closely examining
them, it brought me to the realization that my children after all may be
traumatized following the confusion they went through with different parenting
skills. It hit me so hard that I have decided to seek a different approach that
will revert to sanity. All the signs are shouting out for me to do something
about it.
It
is said, “When two elephants fight, it is the grass that suffers.” Many times,
the repercussions are seen too late, that nothing can be done. I would not want
my children to view me as the aggressor as I strive to impart discipline using
the wrong approach. I have embarked on getting information that will help me
deal with them appropriately.
I am
happy that so far it is working, at least I see a change and I am glad about
it. It is a rough journey but deep inside I feel joy and unexplainable
satisfaction.
Challenges
come in different forms and dealing with them sometimes requires creativity
that is out of this world. Some things that may seem simple are actually the
most difficult to handle but, who says they can’t be handled? That’s why in all
these, I will stick to my Lord like Glue because he alone can see me through.
