A Message to Parents:
I am the father of two girls, and I
understand that being a parent can be
challenging. It is my experience that most
parents do not want to physically punish
their children. Those who do mostly do
so out of desperation to fix a problem in
the immediate future that seems out-ofcontrol.
Marshall Rosenberg, from his experiences
of interacting with his own children,
comments, You cant make your kids do
anything. All you can do is make them
wish they had. And then, they will make
you wish you hadnt made them wish they
had.
There is an alternative to punishing
children. It requires a development of
better communication skills, possible
healing from the actions of the past, and
the rebuilding of trust between child
and parent. It is possible to develop an
empathic-connection with your children; a
connection in which everyones needs can
be met in a cooperative way.
Contact our parent-councilors on our
Facebook Group - Liberate Parents - to
network with other parents who are also
trying to develop their connection with
children in peaceful, cooperative ways.
May the peace that you nurture today,
blossom into the joy of your future.
