[quote=Anonymous]-Keeping my kids safe -Meeting their basic physical and emotional needs (supporting them, teaching them about emotions and self-regulation, etc.) -Taking care of myself enough so that I can provide them with the emotional support they need -Parenting each individual kid in a way that is best for them, while maintaining consistency for all kids. Things are not always equal, but they should be fair -Having fun with them when possible Everything else. I will not model martyrism for them, because I don't want them to grow up to be martyrs. I want them to be independent, productive, decent human beings (knock wood and understanding that health issues may arise that limit these things). Those come in myriad forms, and I am far less concerned about specific achievements as I am about those things.[/quote]
