[quote=Anonymous](1) You need to take care of yourself. If you are exhausted, you cannot be there emotionally for other people (2) Books such as Unconditional Parenting and Playful Parenting can help you learn new parenting skills. Also How To Talk So Kids will Listen and Listen So Kids Will Talk (3) You are more than a cook and a tutor for your kids. When was the last time you had fun with them? Do they think you enjoy their company? Do they think you enjoy *them,* rather than simply seeing them as an investment that must be secured through educational success? Find time to do something *fun* with each kid. Tell each kid, "I would really like to just spend some time hanging out with you. What would you like to do together, if you could do or go anywhere?" Then do it. [/quote]
