“It is one thing to show your child the way, and a harder thing to then stand out of it.”

“Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children.”
“Your children need your presence more than your presents.”
“We were given two ears but only one mouth, because listening is twice as hard and important as talking.”
“Listen earnestly to anything your children want to tell you, no matter what.”
“Listen to your child. When they communicate feeling tired, overwhelmed or report having fun and being satisfied, notice what’s going on.”
A reader asked me to write my hit about over scheduling our kids, so here goes. As always, this is my humble opinion, so take what you want and leave the rest.
You are a Super-mom, and you know your child. Is he or she into going a mile a minute before school, after school, and beyond?
Or does she or he like to cuddle up with a good book after school and just chill?
It really doesn’t matter what I think about over scheduling, or even about the fact there is such a term, which in of itself implies judgment. What matters is what your child wants and needs. And that you’re in tune and grounded enough to notice this and deliver it as best as you can.
So if you’re asking me for a cookie-cutter answer and prescription, I ain’t going to give it to you Supermoms. I’m all about love n light n balance n moderation n Prana. And listening from within. I am not about judgment and telling people what to do (no matter what the haters say LOL).
So rock on with your bad self, Supermom.. And choose your child’s activities wisely, so his or her schedule is a beautiful reflection of his or her unique self.
Have the best day ever!
Namaste!
