Homeschooling In The 21st Century - The Smart Parenting Revolution - Take Part Today

I am thoroughly intrigued by the actual process that takes place in becoming parents. I am not talking about the scientific process! We all spring from a mother. We grow and become adults. Some of us then find a connection with a complete stranger whom we then make a commitment to - one way or another! This stranger then becomes part of a process that creates or receives beings who are blood or otherwise linked to both of the initial strangers.Parents are a cohesive set of persons undertaking to raise their blood or otherwise linked counter parts. It is interesting that the fact that parents start out as strangers is often over looked and under rated. Just because you marry and pop out or adopt a few beings doesn't mean you suddenly are completely at one with your newly created existence. Of course two individuals raised by two other complete individuals are going to struggle with decisions in how to raise children!That is when enlightening books such as Dawna Ma
rkovas 'The Smart Parenting Revolution' come in and serve as an incredibly human guide to raising newly created or received off spring! Her book is also a journey in finding success in all humans we are faced with. Parents coming together as individuals will benefit greatly from her emphasis in focusing on successful components of the individual person.Section one shares her experience of finding the "spot of grace". We all are graced with space of pure potential that can be cultivated once it is brought to a place of recognition. She rather eloquently shows the"No Child Left Behind" as a questionable way to view the potential of our future population. We put the future of our children in a difficult space when we strive to generalize their potential and abilities.Gems like:"The law of flotation was not derived by studying that which sinks."Wayne Dyerillustrates her commitment to showing us that successful lessons in life often focus on the things that work!As parents we
are continually forced to look at the negative in regards to our children especially those who are in any way affiliated with public education. As parents we have the power to shift this paradigm and defeat the viscous negative cycle. Markovas work is a supportive guide to leading more of us in this direction.The Smart Parenting Revolution is a conservative yet thoughtful approach to positive parenting and spousing! I realize spousing might not be a word but it works well in this context! Isn't that the way new words are created? To look at it positively, I might just be a great word maker upperer!
