Is Your Child Living an Empowered Existence?

It’s October now, and the school year is in full swing. You’re settling back into the homework and the before and after school routines. After a long break and the excitement of school beginning, it can nice to have everything settle down a bit – but with kids it also serves as a reminder of how quickly time does fly.

One of the things I’ve really noticed this year is the vast difference in how children behave from one grade level to the next. It wasn’t so long ago that my daughter was starting kindergarten, and now she is fast approaching the high school years!

This really came to light as she and I were on the way home from school the other day. When I picked her up I noticed that she seemed just a little bit ‘off’ – not her usual vivacious, outgoing, tell me all about her day self.

She was quiet – really quiet – and after about ten minutes of driving, she turned to me and said, “You know what Mom? I just don’t understand how someone can be your friend one minute and then be really mean the very next minute – like leaving you in the dust and ignoring you.”

To this I replied, “Hummmm” – wanting her to get in touch with her own feelings (and not wanting to influence her away from her own guidance).

Within seconds, my daughter’s eyes lit up and she said, “Well Mom, you know something? What I think is that the way my friend was acting wasn’t about anyone else. It was really about how they were feeling about themselves; about what was going on inside themselves.”

She went on to say, “And I know that I can choose to look at all of the things that make me happy about being her friend. Plus, tomorrow is a new day, and I believe everything else will turn out just fine!”

WOW – what a rewarding thing to hear from a child!

This is what raising and empowering children in spirit is all about. When I think back on my own childhood, I know I would never have had an awareness of the kind of inner resources and guidance that allowed my daughter today to come to that conclusion.

This is the amazing reward – for both her and me – of taking simple steps in allowing kids to grow up in real awareness of the guidance and power that exists inside of them. It reveals that the chaos on the surface – the popularity contests, the acting out, the low self-esteem that many children experience, does not have to be the reality for everyone.
