Family life is busy, filled with daily lunches, homework, and after school activities dominating.
School holidays are the highlights.
But there are also influences like video games, advertising, fashionable clothing,
and the right things to say on socials, so that kids can be cool.
Before you know it, kids are learning about who they are from the internet
and ‘developing character’ has been forgotten.
And anxiety and depression are at an all-time high.
Kids are more likely to want fame and fortune than friendship.
Life feels like it’s getting a bit out of control and the thought of teenage years is scary.
When we grew up, families didn’t talk much about important stuff – we were left to figure it out.
But we can’t afford to leave them to it now.
If we don’t teach our kids about life, the internet will.
All it takes is a little intentionality, to make sure we don’t miss the important stuff.
