4. Dont unload a bad day on your children

5.The first thing your children should see when you come home if they are awake is a smile

6.Your children should be told daily how much you love them and how important they are to you

Parenting For Busy Parents # 6

Saying I love you to your kids should not be relegated to the weekend when you have more time to breathe

Parenting For Busy Parents # 5

 Never give your child reason to think that your need to relax is more important than they are.At times the way we express the need to relax could give our kids the wrong impression

Parenting For Busy Parents # 4

Never dismiss what your child wishes to tell or show you

Parenting For Busy Parents # 3

Leave your kids an" I love you" note or something of that nature before going to work if you dont get to see them...you know what !!...even if you do get to see them leave them a note.That little effort will be appreciated for years to come

Parenting For Busy Parents # 2

In your rush to get things done etc dont forget to show your kids respect

Parenting for Busy Parents - #1

When you come home every evening before any update take two minutes per kid .Give them a long hug ,tell them how much you love and missed them.Tell the other kids to go elsewhere when spending the two minutes with each kid.Call "personal time".The kids will cherish this special time with you forever .

The Seven Essential Pillars of Parenting for Busy Parents(extremely biased and subjective based on 48 years of experience with my parents)
Within your own personal context:

Pillar 1

Pillar 2

Children should feel that they are a top Priority

Pillar 3
Children must feel that you will never give up on them

Pillar 4
Let the children be who they are

Pillar 5
Respect your children

Pillar 6

Be inspiring for your kids

Pillar 7
Give G-D to your children
and you give them the power to withstand the strongest of storms ,stability in chaos,unbreakable self esteem , non fleeting happiness etc
That which keeps these Pillars standing is a foundation which is selfless,loving ,unconditional giving and boundless gratitude to G-d for the privilege of being entrusted with the beautiful blessings that are our children
These Pillars in general if achieved, will facilitate a great measure of success and good relationships with your children(obviously there are certain specific situations that have unique demands)
All that we offer in regard to these 7 Pillars will be in the context and framework of PARENTING FOR BUSY PARENTS
