[quote=Anonymous]sounds to me like you're overcompensating and worrying you're not good enough. Here's the thing, the most important thing that kids need--above everything else--is love and acceptance. If you can give them unconditional love and acceptance, the rest is not that important. I think of this often-I work a lot, I yell, I am sometimes lazy, etc. But I do my best to show my kids all the time that I love them and I accept them for who they are. That's what you were missing as a child. The rest-=-homework, education, lessons, being a perfect parents--is just not that important. The good news is that you are completely capable of showing them that! Its clear in your post. Therapy would help, of course, for you to deal with your insecurities. [/quote]
