Smart Things to Say to Your Kids

By: Marty Lee Parker
 

Everything that you have achieved up to this point in your life, you owe to the little voices in your head. Your personality is built from certain mantras, quotes and philosophies that you have gained throughout your life. You use them to make smart and wise decisions in your life. Actually recalling what these little voices say so that you can pass them on to your children can be tricky.

To help pass on your knowledge and wisdom to your children, you must make an event out of the process. Just by agreeing that you have certain beliefs and words of wisdom in you and that when you remember what they are you will then say them to your children, will not work. It takes conscious effort to pass on the knowledge and beliefs you have gathered through all of your years to your children. Having a specific time set up to do this makes sharing our wisdom with our children actually happen and occur on a consistent basis.

An ideal time to share your words of wisdom with your children is when they are gathered around the table for mealtime. After asking the clich question of, "Did you learn anything at school today?" you can share with your family words of wisdom. The children are busy eating, they cannot go anywhere and there is actually time for what you say to sink in.

This deadline that you have created will be what will drive you to come up with some of the secrets of life that have helped you in your life. Without the pressure and committing to sharing your knowledge at a specific time, you will be less likely to think of all those smart words of wisdom that have helped you out in your life.

Here are some examples of words of wisdom to share with your kids:

- Before you say anything negative about someone, pretend they are standing beside you.

- If you ever commit a crime someday, somewhere, someone will find out... it might not be tomorrow, or next week, but someday you will get caught.

- Mistakes are our greatest teachers, so don't be afraid to make one.

Giving a quick burst of wisdom sometimes works best. It doesn't have to be lengthy or have to have a hearty explanation. You said the wisdom, that is what is the important part.

If you want to insure that your child is a prized worker, tell them this:

ALWAYS GIVE THEM AN "ALSO"

One of the best ways to get repeat business is to do more then people ask. If your child is paid to pick cut grass, tell them to cut the grass then wiped down the mower and sweep out the shed when they are done. If they are hired to watch kids, tell them to watch the kids and do the dishes that are in the sink while they are there. They will be in high demand the rest of their life if they do this secret.
