Lesson Learned From 10 Year Old Not From Cop

Image
The following post is by the Co-founder of WorkingClassParenting.com, Omar De Pablo: I hate to start out with a cliché; however, how often have we as parents thought to ourselves or spoken, “do as I say and not as I do?" We discipline our children on particular matters and expect, no, demand, consistent obedience. Meanwhile, we ourselves are lacks-a-daisy about the same issue. Multiple times in my sons early years I've stressed the importance of wearing seat belts. Before the car would row out, everyone was to have their seat belts on. After a while it became habit for him to get the seat belt on, but habit for me to leave it off. So with time, the tables turned. My son, now 10 years old, reminds me every time I get in the car to “get your seat belt on dad, what if we get in an accident dad, what if you get pulled over dad?" As soon as I was called out I would make some sly remark like, “oh I was going too, or, I forgot, I will now." (You know, trying to keep...

Tips for Soccer parents to remember from a Pastor

Picked up my daughter from school today and after getting a bite to eat went to Target to get her first soccer ball. She has been wanting to play soccer for a while now, so just to get her started I thought we would get a ball and go to the rec center to kick it around a bit. Soccer was never my sport growing up and my knowledge of it is very limited, but with that being said my daughter is awesome at soccer. She was diving to block my kicks and nailing her kicks into the corners of the goal. So this could be her thing and I need to get ready. I have heard some stories of crazy soccer parents and I don't want to become one. So if you are a soccer novice like me but you have a young soccer player you are going to be watching here are some tips from Bruce Reyes-Chow a Presbyterian Minister, Father of 3 girls and all round soccer dad.  1- It's just a game - He writes about how 10 minutes after losing a game his daughter was making plans to bake cookies later, but he was stil...
