Do you know if your child is spoiled is somewhat a hard question for any parent to answer. And most of the time, it usually ends with a stern “of course not!” – while trying to hide any tone of doubt.

A Family Is A Unit – Is Yours One?

A Family Is A Unit - Is Yours One?

The need for a strong family unit is even more important today compared to our parents’ time.

These days, parents tend to work longer hours, and even children are forced to spend more time doing co-curricular activities to prepare them for an ever changing work environment that awaits them – not to mention the temptation of the internet.

In an ideal setting, the idea of a “home” is supposed to be a space where each family member would yearn to return to and a place where you can draw unconditional love and support from. But the reality for many families, not just in the US, but around the world, a home is where a family member just rest for the night in order to recuperate in preparation for the next day.

Some families have it worse than others, but the point is, the demands and challenges of our fast paced world is slowly contributing to the breakdown of family relationships.

Do all of that sound close to home?

Do you feel that the strong family ties you used to have are slowly being eroded by personal commitments, needs and wants?

Don’t worry, it’s not too late to change things back to what they were.

In this article, we will go through three talking points on building healthy family relationships that can help you, and your children, withstand the demands of the modern society we live in.

Great Ways To Connect With Other Parents (And Why It’s Important)

Great Ways To Connect With Other Parents (And Why It’s Important)There’s a lot of challenges that come with being a parent and perhaps one of the most surprising is how isolating it can feel. Before baby came along, you likely had plenty of adult conversations. However, once you’re a parent, a LOT of time is taken up by your little one and it’s not unusual for many parents to spend days alone with just them and their child.

This isolation can have a dramatic negative impact on your well-being. While it’s great spending so much quality time with your child, you need a separate life too. If none of your friends have children, it can be difficult to relate to one another. Many friendships sadly fizzle out once baby comes along as your priorities switch.

So, how can you prevent yourself from becoming too isolated? The answer is to connect with other parents. Here we’ll look at some of the best ways to connect with other parents and stop yourself from feeling like you’re going insane. [Read more…]
