“Years after the tragedy, I picked up a parenting magazine in a waiting room featuring an ‘ethical parenting’ quiz. I got all ten questions ‘right’ except for ‘Would you read your child’s private journal?’ The correct answer, according to the parenting magazine was ‘no.’ I know it would have been my answer too, when Dylan was alive, but it would not be my answer now.”
“When we search our children’s rooms or read their journals, we risk that they will feel betrayed. However, they may be hiding problems they cannot manage themselves.”

7 Things to Help Our Kids Thrive
• Eat Dinner as a family. According to a Harvard non-profit, kids who eat dinner with their family about 5 days a week exhibit lower levels of substance abuse, teen pregnancy, obesity, and depression.
• Enforce no-screen time. Developing brains can be permanently altered when they spend too much time using tablets and smartphones. This includes parts of the brain responsible for focus and attention, vocabulary, social skills, and impulse control.

• Make them work. According to a Harvard study, individuals that achieved the greatest professional success also did chores as a child and had hoseholdresponsibilities.
• Delay gratification. Children who are able to resist temptation grow up to be people with better social skills, higher test scores, and lower incidence of substance abuse. Train them to have tasks to do each day that need to be completed, even if they don’t feel like doing them.

• Read to them. From NY School of Medicine, research suggests babies whose parents began reading to them in infancy have better language, literacy and early reading skills
• Encourage them to travel. This can lead to increased tolerance of other cultures, increased willingness to learn, increased independence and self-confidence, better adaptability and sensitivity, and better self-expression.
• Let them fail. This helps your child learn to cope, and provides them with real life experience they need to relate to peers in a genuine way. Being challenge leads to the need for hard work and sustained efforts – and demonstrates that these traits are valuable even without the blue ribbon, the trophy, or the highest score. This allows children to build resilience and they will be more willing to attempt difficult tasks because they are not afraid of failure.
