My parents also taught me how NOT to parent.
Through their inadequacies and general absence I learned so much.
- I will always be there for my children
- They will always have a place to call home
- I will always encourage them to try new things and I will support them in doing those things
- I will tell them I love them everyday
- If my partner and I have relationship problems down the line, I will keep the children out of it and always encourage them to have a good relationship with their father

Be patiant & do whats right for them no matter what.
My parents bend over backwards to do things for us, i just hope i can do the same for my kids.
And home will always be home, no matter what.

Like a few others, my parents also taught me how not to parent.
*My son will always know he is loved beyond measure ~ no conditons ~ and has somewhere he belongs, no matter what.
*He will never be the scapegoat or blamed for my inadequecies.
*He'll be encouraged at every opportunity to explore who he is and the world he lives in.
*He'll feel safe, secure and accepted , from birth. Attachment/natural parenting is how we plan to do that.
