@theparentalbrief: Michelle Obama once shared with Oprah that the White House didn’t change her daughters because they were already grounded before they ever got there. 💬 They weren’t raised to expect everything they wanted. Instead, they learned discipline, gratitude, humility, and responsibility. Because parenting isn’t about giving children everything they want. It’s about preparing them for life. Children who learn to appreciate what they have, handle disappointment, and take responsibility for their actions carry those lessons into adulthood. The goal isn’t to raise children who have everything. It’s to raise children who know how to handle what life gives them. ❤️ 💬 What’s one value you hope your children carry into adulthood? 🔁 Save this reminder and share it with a parent who believes character matters more than material things. Follow @theparentalbrief for insights that help you raise capable, grounded, and emotionally strong children. 🎥 Credit: Oprah / Michelle Obama #gentleparenting #parentingwisdom #positiveparenting #raisingconfidentkids #familyvalues

Our school district wants everyone to fill out the free and reduced lunch form whether or not you qualify. I was checking the box for our income and my kid was like “oh wow we make a lot of money.” I said “No, YOU don’t make any money. Daddy and I do alright but you don’t make a dollar yet.”

I grew up in a wealthy family. We kids never had access to cash or credit cards until we went to university. We did house chores, helping with cleaning and cooking, even gardening. That was expected. Doing good at school and behaving well was expected, too.

I told my partner early on….. our child will have a better upbringing than we did but we will not create a monster we will not be able to control. If you spoil them as children they become adults that won’t contribute to society in a positive way…. Don’t make monsters!!!!
