As founders of StrategiesForParenting.com, parents and professionals we bridge customs, values and philosophies of being a parent with business skill development and a good appreciation of skills needed to succeed in daily life and careers. Our goal is to share our thinking with others in the hopes that we can help parents navigate through the many challenges and opportunities of parenting and to bring new ideas to parenting in a collaborative way. As successful parents, we can relate to parenting and feel we can communicate in an effective way through our experiences. As professionals we bring our own business training skills and techniques, basic logic, research and a great passion for parenting to develop our unique approach of strategies for parenting.
A key component of our strategies for parenting and preparation for independence is the development of life skills. We define life skills as the skills you inherit and develop which allow you to function in your daily life. These skills are very broad to include all things people do and are developed over time. The goal of independence for your children will be accomplished once they have the necessary life skills to succeed on their own. Therefore the level of success children enjoy will be directly related to the level of life skills they develop.
Our underlying theme of independence is an eventual goal and measurement of success as a parent. The Road To Independence™ is the journey to develop your children to become independent. Independence can start at an early age and has a broad meaning in our minds. We have expanded the meaning of independence significantly to include doing things for themselves and many more important life skills and disciplines. We believe the foundation for independence includes basic life skills, character development, attitudes, experiences and activities all of which shape the individual. Our strategies are very broad and will help you along the long road or journey of many years to develop and prepare your child for independence.
Parenting is the most widely practiced role in the world, accounting for an amazing amount of time and resources focused on raising children. Are we doing a good job and if not, what are the consequences in our households, schools, communities and beyond?
This book will help make the most of your opportunity to develop the right strategies for parenting. - enabling you to enjoy the time you have with your children and prepare them for a successful life.
This book is laid out in three key sections; strategies, life skills and preparation for independence. The strategies section helps you focus on developing your overall approach to parenting.
