Do you need a SuperNanny?

Have you seen this show Super Nanny? It is absolutely crazy! The parents on these shows if you'll notice all have a very common characteristic. They are totally oblivious to the job of parenting. Now I know folks believe me I know that parenting can be a confusing job,but here is something every parent should know with out being told! But just in case here goes "You got to mean what you say" sound simple enough right? The good news is that it is simple very simple yet so many parents today have no idea of it's importance. I have seen parents tell a child to stop doing something 15 or 20 times and when the child doesn't stop finally when they finally have become so flustered they decide to actually focus on the child, then they blow up and yell and scream and perhaps even hit the child. When if they had told the child once and then dealt appropriately with it then they could've saved them and the child a whole lot of grief anxiety, frustration and hurt feelings. When feelings get hurt between you and your child sometimes that forms a gap that no bridge will ever cover, remembe every second counts, put your focus on your child!

Try This!

I heard an amazing statistic a few years ago, about Jewish people and jail. Did you know that the percentage of Jewish men in jail is extremely low less than 1 percent! I believe the reason for this is because in the Jewish culture father's give their children blessings. No not permission to get married or anything. Actual blessings that they pray over their children. I believe there is huge power in prayer and what better object for prayer than our children.Proverbs 18:21 tells us that "Death and Life are in the Power of the Tongue" Words carry a great deal of weight and we need to realize this!Pray over and for your children every day.Natalie will even ask ro make sure I don't forget at night. I can tell it makes her feel safe and loved and it gives her greater faith in her own life that God is walking with her. All I can say is Try This I know you will never regret it!
