Parents have the same job as ChildFree Adults

As kids, we watch and observe the adults in our life to get our gauge on life and on what’s going on. Regardless if you have kids or not. There is always going to be kids around you that watch and observe who and what you do. Animal do the same thing. Add to that teaching the kids while you are around. Class room or no. Kids learn something new ever second. From why a mom doesn’t like the way dad talked to a lady to finding out that someone lied. I feel it cool to point out that we all have the same job when it comes to the kids of this planet. We are all Role Models and Mentors. Some of us just have a life time apprentice. All this coming from a childfree adult, but is still surrounded like most child free adult by everyone from grown sibs to co works, friends with kids. In seeing this I feel that parenting wouldn’t be as hard as they say if parent where themselves (doing them and having fun doing it), guiding there child to do the same, and given advice/other options as needed to the child. We all make mistakes, but I feel the mistakes would be a lesson instead of some craze bad situation, if parent looked at it and applied the Mentor/Role Modal method. Not to say that none of them are not. Plenty of parents follow this method. Doing what they love, having fun, and setting examples in actions and words. I have a lil niece named Naya. I love her, it didn’t dawn on me that she was watching and learning from me until she got caught in a lie. And I am setting there explaining to her that lying is not good or necessary, because we are all human lie dectors. She understood right away explaining thats like what you do. I said yeah. We all have this gift. Learning that today makes parenthood not so scary. Peace and Blessings Shenice :)
