The Journey of Personal Growth in Parenting

What if the key to unlocking your child's potential lies within your own growth and self-discovery? On this episode of Parental Purpose, I, Donna Janel, invite you to join me on a journey of understanding how we can raise the "now generation" to become leaders in today's ever-changing world. Together, we'll explore the profound influence parents have in shaping their children's pathways to success, whether academically, financially, or socially. Drawing inspiration from the wisdom of Maya Angelou, we'll underscore the necessity of self-improvement as a foundation for effective parenting. Embrace the challenge and responsibility of nurturing your children to confidently navigate the complexities of the world.

As parents, we're tasked with the vital role of being our children's primary educators. We'll discuss the importance of being mindful of external influences and how to ensure our children are equipped with the skills and values necessary to thrive. Reflect on what success looks like in your household and learn how to instill those standards in your children. This episode is a reminder that, through continuous learning and personal growth, we can guide our children to become the leaders they are capable of being. Join me as we celebrate the beauty, responsibility, and nobility of parenting, and take steps towards preparing our children for a promising future.

Parents are the Bows and Children are the Arrows they will land wherever we aim them eventually!

I'm sorry we out. Hey everybody, welcome back to Parental Purpose I am your host, donna Janelle where we bring back the responsibility and nobility and beauty back to parenting right. We know, as parents, it's challenging, it's a struggle, it's a hard knockout. I'm here for parents, but I'm here to tell you that it does get easier. It's not going to be very easy, but it does get easier as time goes on.

And our job as parents, our responsibility, is making sure that we're raising up the now generation. I don't even say the next generation, I say the now generation, because our kids are so bright and intelligent. Well, they can make changes now. So how do we raise our children to be leaders, as they're following us right. So, parents with a purpose, our goal is to make sure that we're able to put the clothes on our children, that we don't send them outside naked, right. We don't send them out there for the world to close our children. I don't send them outside naked, right. We don't send them out there for the world to close our children. I don't know if you guys noticed, but there's a lot of clothes going on lately, like the world is closing up, with so many different things and so many different thoughts and their behaviors are changing just based on what the world said that our children should be. Our first responsibility in parenting is to make sure that our children are growing up to be successful, right, whatever success looks like for you and your household, everybody has their own standard and levels of success and things like that. You know. Success in education, success in finances, success socially, whatever it is, but as long as we're investing in our children and making sure that they get those schools and be able to apply it so that they can do cultural differences.

What's going on with the parents? How are these children raised? Are the parents active or not active? What's going on in parenting? By right? They should say that y'all by right. The first question they should say is what's going on in the parenting level? Because they are our children. They are not the world's children, they are not the government's children, they are not the school system's children. They are our children and it's our job to make sure that they have what they need to see right. In order for them to have what they need to see, we have to have it for ourselves. We can't get what we don't have. We can't teach what we don't know, so we have to learn some things ourselves so that we should be able to teach our children.
