“Teaching your children to dream big and live their lives in pursuit of those dreams may be the greatest gift you could ever give to them.”
- Michael Port, NY Times Bestselling author of The Think Big Manifesto
We are all blessed by the children in our lives. I have four. With each, my so-called “parenting skills” were sometimes (probably too frequently) inadequate. In each, I learned as much as I taught, probably more. Through each, I grew as they grew. Because of each, I am a better person today. Tara’s approach to affirming our children is not just a “guide for parents”, but gives parenting purpose. Without purpose, shepherding our children through life can be motion without meaning or activity without direction. More than a century ago, psychologist and philosopher William James said, “The best use of life is to spend it for something that outlasts it.” Spending our lives dreaming with our children rather than for our children will surely give them a richness to their journey that will remain indelibly etched in their hearts, a forever gift that will be an unparalleled legacy that will outlast anything else we could possibly do.
