Have you found conflicting ideas about which way is best, and now you are at a loss? Have you tried the ‘cool’ things with modern parenting, like being BFFs with your children only to have negatives outcomes? Now you wonder what to do next? If so, this book is for you. As parents are being encouraged to grow closer to their children, many have found themselves playing the ‘best friend’ role. It seems to create the best parent-child relationship, doesn’t it? In this book, we discuss the parental role, and discover the foundation on which a healthy parent-child relationship should be built. We uncover the realities of relating with your children as BFFs, and discover why it can become quite a prevalent challenge for good parenting. Are you wondering; What are the best parenting techniques in a word full of contradictive ideas? How can I be close and feel connected to my children without being their BFF? How do I know how to strike a good balance and play the unpleasant parts of my parental roles, while still building a great connection with my children? I tried being a BFF to my younger daughter to keep her close and happy, because I had been too strict with my older one and we grew apart. Both of these methods didn’t work. Being too close ruined my child. In my effort to be a friend, I didn’t teach her responsibility and control. Being too strict ran off the other one. Just like you, I would wonder, “how do I find the perfect balance?” I write this book out of my experience. I eventually did find a good balance and I share the lessons in this book. My kids turned out great after all. You can achieve this too.
