"Your children need your presence more than your presents."

Jesse Louis Jackson

When I was growing up, it seemed like my parents’ favorite sentence was, ‘It’s too expensive, we can’t afford it.’ It didn’t matter if we asked the other parent, they said exactly the sane thing. I was telling that to a young mother on the bus one day and she sounded shocked! ‘You can do that?’ she asked. Yes! And you should do that! Just because a kid wants something doesn’t mean you have to get it for them. There are often priorities that are more important than just spoiling your kid – like food or rent!

 

A PSA (Public Service Announcement, not Peugeot-Citroën) points out that you need to put away your cellphone or tablet and actually interact with your child! Talking and reading to a very young child helps them do better in school later. Have them count things when you take them grocery shopping. Have them find fruits and vegetables in different colors. It’s even better if you can teach them more than one language when they’re around 6 or 7 or younger when they can learn them the easiest (the US doesn’t need yet another generation of monolingual adults).  ;–)

We are born in one
