Parenting Quotes

Quotes About Parents

  • Raising kids with strong character requires doing less FOR them and teaching them to do more for themselves.



==================
Parenting with Purpose (5-part Series)

Your Advantage When Times are Tough | MWM
https://youtu.be/0H77EUK6zFY
#Attitude Is The Difference Maker = This week, John Maxwell will share 5 important things to teach your children when parenting with purpose. Parenting with purpose is about leading your children correctly without overcorrecting them. The first focus is attitude. It is important to stress the importance of a good attitude with your children. People with good attitudes—who have a positive attitude during negative times—will do better in life. Life is tough! People who want to succeed should have an attitude of tenacity to overcome life’s difficulties!

#Responsible Kids Become Mature Adults | MWM
https://youtu.be/9JB4SrymChY
Take Ownership = The second way to parent with purpose is to teach responsibility. We all need to learn to take ownership of our mistakes or actions and not place blame on others. Instead of saying “sorry,” say “I’m sorry.” Teach your children to be responsible and take ownership. When we teach responsibility to our children, it leads to their development into mature adults. 


People Make Your Potential Possible | MWM
https://youtu.be/kr15IFmd29g
Connect With People = The third way to parent with purpose is to focus on relationships and the ability to get along with people. It is important to be good at connecting and relating to other people because the world is composed of people. This ability determines how much others like you and help you. Teach your children how to connect and relate with other people. Relationships are a key to success. 


The One Thing That Determines Everything Else | MWM
https://youtu.be/noPnWFQR7-w
Discover Your Strengths = You can parent with purpose by helping your child with their self-image. Self-image determines the friends someone hangs around with and even who they marry. The way a person sees others is influenced by how they see themselves. Having a low self-image can hold a person back because they can’t see themselves accomplishing a difficult, worthwhile goal. Help your kids see themselves well, and discover their own strengths. When they pursue those strengths to achieve and experience their own wins, it will build up their self-image.

The Power of Taking Responsibility | MWM
https://youtu.be/UaGSFIjKFlk
Own Your Actions = The second way to parent with purpose is to teach responsibility. We all need to learn to take ownership of our mistakes or actions and not place blame on others. Instead of saying “sorry,” say “I’m sorry.” Teach your children to be responsible and take ownership. When we teach responsibility to our children, it leads to their development into mature adults. 






==================
https://youtu.be/nl0vhcpCT8k
Attitude Is The Difference Maker = By parenting with a purpose, you can be the parent that looks at your children and asks how to invest in them correctly without overcorrecting them and majoring on the minor things in life. Focusing on attitude. A good attitude leads to a better life. It is important to have a positive attitude during difficult times. If you are going to succeed in life, you need to have the attitude of tenacity to overcome the difficulties that everyone experiences. Attitude is the difference maker.


https://youtu.be/Jj1PRp8_xrw
Always Take Responsibility = It is important for all people to have a sense of responsibility or to take ownership of their life. You will never do well in life until you take responsibility for your life—for your choices, for who you are, for what you do, for your actions. Take responsibility for the things that happen to you.


https://youtu.be/kBBEqjTwdwM
Connect, Be Relatable = The ability to get along with people and relate to them is a key part in being successful. By learning to connect with people and relate with people your life will be able to reach its full potential. The world is full of people—the way you connect to them will determine how well they like you, and how much they are willing to help you. Connect, and be relatable.

Your Self-Image Determines Your Behavior = You need to allow yourself to see yourself well. If you see yourself as a 5 out 10, then who you surround yourself with will also be in that category, and you won't go after the 8's, 9's, and 10's. Your self-image determines who you are around, even who you marry. Your behavior is not based on how you see other people, how you see a job, or how you see others—it's entirely based on how you see yourself. 


https://youtu.be/Z84cuvW3UV4
Have Faith = It is important for us to have a good relationship with God and to know Him, to be able to communicate with Him, and have a sense of Him working and living in our lives. We have to be that example. He is the source. Every good and perfect gift comes from Him.

It’s Not What Happens TO You; It’s What Happens IN You | MWM
https://youtu.be/b5H_i8ilJC0
Have A Positive Attitude = Attitude is everything. It is important to have a great attitude about yourself, other people, and life. It isn’t what happens to you, but what happens in you. If you can find the bright side of things in tough situations, keeping a positive attitude, you will be capable of happiness in any circumstance.
#Dad #Attitude #Happy



Happiness is Not About What Happens TO Us, But IN Us
Have A Great Attitude = Attitude is everything. It is important to have a great attitude about yourself, other people, and life. It isn’t what happens to you, but what happens in you. If you can find the bright side of things in tough situations, keeping a positive attitude, you will be capable of happiness in any circumstance.
Happiness Is Not About What Happens To Us, But In Us = Have a great attitude about yourself and life. It's not what happens to you, it's what happens in you. If you have a great attitude about life and yourself, then you can be happy.

Seek Happiness, Find Disappointment; Seek Value, Find Happiness
https://youtu.be/nRttDvLAhr0
Seek Value = True happiness comes from a deep inner satisfaction and knowledge that we are good people with good values, doing our best to make a difference in life. That is a happiness that doesn’t leave when the mood changes. If you seek happiness, it will often disappoint or disappear … But if you seek value, by adding value to people and making a positive difference, happiness will come to you.


https://youtu.be/qYpShyvXr9w
An Important Choice = Happiness starts with you. That's the key! You have the choice to decide how you will start each day, interact with those around you, and most importantly be for yourself. 




Happiness Is an Inside Job = Happiness cannot be acquired. Often, people set out to pursue happiness in a spouse, a friend, a job, a family, a home, a title or a whole lot of money. But happiness isn’t “out there.” Happiness starts inside of you. It is a gift you can give to yourself.

Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
