I know we all try to be good role models for our children, so here is some food for thought.
Are you a fountain or a drain? Think about it. When you walk into a room, are people happy to see you and are you happy to see them? You know who are drains and not fountains. When you see these people coming, you say to yourself “Oh, boy, here we go again. They’re just going to whine and moan and talk and talk about their problems, no solutions.” You know your children are watching and listening; probably more than you realize they are. Make sure you are doing your best to be a fountain and not a drain. Your children will benefit big time as they watch and listen to their most important role model: YOU!
Happy New Year and make 2024 the best that it can be with your children learning from you every day as their #1 role model.
Be a fountain!
