Raising our children as our partners in our home and on our planet, bringing sufficiency and fulfillment for everyone, with no one left out.

Our children, in the beginning, want nothing more than for us, their parent(s), to be happy and successful.

And isn’t that what we want for our children, too? This is, in one sense, easier than expected. What is not easier is giving up what we have learned and come to believe since our early childhood.

I will start soon by updating and posting relevant blogs.

This is a new world …

Parenting People for Partnership is for parents, grandparents, and early child?ood teachers, is for anyone looking for insight and tools for enhancing communication and reaching extraordinary goals for themselves and others in any environment. And now not just for parents! However, I first learned what I learned about this while working almost full-time in early childhood, kindergarten, and K-3 classrooms, and raising two girls, now successful and happy adults. We adults were once kids, and went through similar stages of relationships and needs.

As we prepare for a challenging yet exciting “possible” future for all humanity in these trying times, we can find common ground in our humanness, and acknowledge our diversity as our strength. Seeing our common ground is especially significant with regard to re-inventing our institutions to nurture inclusion and sufficiency in health and well-being for all, with no one left out. But now, with climate change and distrustful politics, the task is much bigger.

The surprising and effective task is primarily about the way () we communicate our meanings and experiences with each other to each other - through personal assessment of others and our assessment of their assessment of us. What is more important, in the earliest years than how to gain and retain a parent’s love, support, and appreciation? You know what is important, yes? Being “right” and “good”, and avoiding being “wrong”, and usually “bad.” And this we learn starting at birth via the times we experience the love and appreciation from our mothers and/or fathers, or other caretakers on whom we are dependent.

THIS HAS A NEW, BROADER NAME:

PEOPLE for Partnership (which, obviously, includes “Parents”)

The heart of this work focuses on the day-to-day interactions between human beings: parents, teachers, children, and all who care about the quality (openness, willingness, honestness) of person-to-person, people-to-people, communication, and cooperation. It applies to life partners and business partners, to envision and create a healthy and thriving future - starting immediately - starting wherever one is - at home, at school, at work, or at play. Now.

Your children, (our children, even if you are not a parent, though you were one once) starting very early, are always learning how their world works. It starts out first with you, if you are a parent or work in an early childhood classroom.

‘Parenting’ is the way we parents interact with each other, our children, others, and our environment in the presence of our children.

We matter: what we say, what we do, and how we do and say what we do and say - now and for their future. Early learning matters, and it happens whether we are aware of it or intentional about it or not.

It is time to be intentionally and consciously “acceptional (TM).”
