Taking Part…

Busy, busy and busy…that’s all your excuse to your kids whenever they tell you that they have a big event in their life and they wish you could come and be part of it.

You see their sad face, leaving you with disappointment. I know, you must feel sad, too. But, you keep telling yourself that there’s nothing you can do.

Well, you’re wrong, dear. There’s something you can do. Of course you can rearrange your meeting schedule. You can bring home some stuff you need to do. You can talk to your boss to get someone replacing you.

There are lots of things you can do. The problem is…are you willing to do it?

Now, imagine your kids’ sad face. Their disappointment

To start, try spending a little time with your beloved ones. Yes, an hour a day would be a great big start.

Look at their happy face…it will give strength for you to try your best to be there whenever they need you.

Trust me…

    Thanks so much for commenting on Amy’s essay: http://www.gnmparents.com/parenting-in-public-a-matter-of-class/ .

    It was validating to her, and it was validating to us as well, to see that we have an active audience that supports our focus.

    GNMParents is still a pretty young site, not even six months old. So we really appreciate you taking the time to participate in the community-building that is our Raison d’Être.

    Thanks,

    Megin and Stu
