[quote=Anonymous]My children are 32, 28 and 24. What surprises me is how well they turned out despite a great many obstacles. I think the most important things were to give them stability, to teach them to be kind and to support them in their pursuits. I didn't push my kids to succeed but I did require them to get involved in whatever activities they wanted. They were exposed to so much that I think they learned lots about career choices, teamwork and pushing themselves. That served them well in college and work and they did succeed. They've always told me that they knew I had their back and that really encouraged them to go out and try things. [/quote]
