Making Your Kids Feel Special

One of the jobs that a parent has to fulfill is making your kids feel like they are the most special people in your life. You want them to feel that if someone wrongs them, you will be there to fight for them. They should know that you are with them every step of the way.
It’s something I try to do. My kids know that I am there for them, and that no one is as important in my life as they are. It’s something that my parents never made my sisters and I feel. Since we were small, we have felt that it was us vs. the world. If someone bashed us, our parents would look the other way. If they compared us to someone else, it was usually that we didn’t compare. We never felt protected or truly loved by them.
I don’t want that for my children. I don’t want their self-esteem to be affected because they think I don’t love them the way a parent should. I don’t want them looking at other parents with a look of wanting cause they see the difference on how they are with their kids. Or feeling less cause all I can talk about is how awful they are and constantly putting them down with other people. Or treating us like enemies when they are fighting, and only becoming united when they were angry at us.
Nope, my kids will never feel that way. I won’t allow them to feel the way that my sisters and I have felt my entire life.
