Indeed - judicious, consistent parenting is a dream of mine. No judgements, learning space and listening carefully are my goals.

Music is a passion of mine. I'm always listening, always learning.

Any problem, big or small, within a family, always seems to start with bad communication. Someone isn't listening.

I had been running as fast as I could for all of my adult life. A person can’t listen effectively while running. A running mother is not able to pick up clues. She is not able to let go of her own agenda long enough to stop and listen.

It's been a dream of mine for a while.

It's only through listening that you learn, and I never want to stop learning.
