Talking about possible scenarios before they might happen will help your children make healthier decisions when the situations come up. As a health care provider, I have lots of stories to share with my children and my police officer husband has many more.

Through the example of others, our children learned the consequences of behaviors. Our focus was Love. We would analyze the stories by determining if the person acted out of love or fear. Were they afraid not to be accepted by others and took a risk and became sick, injured or got in trouble? What could they have done differently? What lesson did they learn?

Share with your children times you acted out of love and times you acted out of fear. Ask them: Remember how much you love your family, your parents, your friends, yourself. Is this action you are considering going to bring love into your life? Or will it cause suffering later? For you, or for those you love? Would you want the person most precious to you to take this action or to know you did it?

Let’s teach our children to remember LOVE.

Very well written, as always. My Mom always said “think before you do something”. I knew what she meant but never fully understood how severe the consequences could be. Act responsibly; live your life with integrity. You won’t have a successful life if you don’t.

“What do you think your reputation is worth?” After recently presenting at a regional conference on “Keeping Your Family Safe Online”, the issue of how kids present themselves online came up over and over again. I am consistantly concerned (not only by the behaviors) by the photographs teens post of themselves all over the internet, particularly on myspace and facebook. These pictures can haunt them the rest of their lives. Parents are often completely unaware there kids have these pages, let alone what information is sent out in to the world about them. All it takes is one click and anyone can grab that picture, even with privacy settings in some cases. Kids don’t give this a thought before realizing what an impact these “small” decisions can make on their future.
