10 things parents do right

A Child of Divorce
By definition, children of separated parents experience ‘separate’ parenting, as distinct from ‘together’ parenting.

But what we want isn’t always what we get. And that is why it is important that you learn from a young age, what your rights and responsibilities are.

Teens need to move in a pack
The pack provides the transition from all social interactions taking place with the parents or parental figures, towards relationships which are independent of the parents altogether.
Most teenagers need to move in a pack. What many parents do not understand however, is that the pack cannot survive in the wild without the adults - at all times - setting up the boundaries within which their young can safely roam.
The Day of the Child
