What is your emotional state showing your children? In these challenging times our children look at us for direction and guidance. If we are moping around or in a panic stricken state our children will absorb that energy which will cause anxiety and depression. As parents we have to operate on HOPE and incorporate this into our daily lives especially now in the midst as many parents are in isolation with their families. Show some hope and provide your children with the gift of hope. Be grateful to have this special time with your families and use it to create deeper bonds with the ones you love.❤️All my love and support during these challenging times.

It has been an amazingly busy weekend. My son rode to #EndHIV and we met him at the finish line I #losangeles at #grandpark. I guess the anticipation as well as #mommystress wore me out energetically.🙃 I am so proud of him but I’m letting him get back to life before I get back into #mommymode lol fussing over him🤷🏾‍♀️ Tonight I’m going to turn in earlier than normal, I’ll see y’all tomorrow bright and early. Good night all. Go to sleep with a smile on your face so you can wake up with a smile in your heart😊❤️ #thelifestyleshift #shift4life #ranchocucamonga #ontario #ontariocalifornia #inlandempire #sanbernardinocounty #losangeles #la #cochella #palmsprings #riverside #victorville #yuccavalley #indio #letsgo (at Rancho Cucamonga, California)

Would you like someone telling you who you could have as a friend? No way right! The beautiful loving friendships that we create on our short stay in this world forever impact our lives. The love, support and magical memories we create are forever etched into the core of our souls changing us forever.They truly become loving parts of an extended family that bring us together by the randomness of the universe. So why do parents feel as though they need to control who their teenagers hang around with? This is something creates chaos in families. It is the child’s life and it is their decision who they have as friends. Trying to control their children and who they hang around with is guaranteed to not only push them children further into the relationship but alienate from the relationship they have with the parents. Therefore, what do you hope to gain by trying to control who your child chooses as friends? It doesn’t matter what you think of them, they are going to make their own decisions regardless of your opinion. Therefore, since there is nothing to gain then why even bother? To To my dear friend Ronnie. I can never thank the universe enough for putting us in you and your amazing families path. All my love and respect and am sure you are watching down on everyone. Love you😇❤️ #narcissisticabuse #singlemom #divorcedparents #parentingteensishard #parentingteenagers #teenagerssuck #momofateen #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #parentingteens #parentproblems #momofteens #parentsofteens #momstress #stressedparents #mommystress #supportingmoms #momsupport #divorcedmom #momwithteens #parentingsupport #stepmomadvice #parentblog #beingamomishard #momstruggles #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #divorcedmoms #divorcedmomlife #coparentingwithanarcissist #dramafreeparenting #dramafreezone🚫 (at Plymouth, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9zksWUFKV1/?igshid=gtbgae30tdla

Why haven’t you changed it yet? If you are looking to create a better relationship with your child what steps are you taking to make that happen? I see far too parents that want to give up and debate about sending their child away or hoping a therapist or Doctor can fix them. Their best hope for helping them through these challenging teenage years is you. Yes...it is really f#cking hard sometimes but being resourceful is the only way to find out what will work so you can make that change in your life that makes an impact in your child’s. Everything else is pressing that lazy ass easy button. Choose the hard button and try something different. That is how to influence change in your life, your child’s life and the world.💪 #parentingteensishard #parentingteenagers #teenagerssuck #momofateen #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #lifewithteenagers #parentingteens #parentproblems #consciousparent #momofteens #parentsofteens #momstress #mommystress #supportingmoms #momblogger #momsupport #dramafreeparenting #divorcedmom #momwithteens #parentingsupport #stepmomadvice #consciousparenting #stressedparents #dramafree #momstruggles #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #divorcedmoms #divorcedmomlife (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9ri9Dxl5od/?igshid=dxi6vgc513u5

Waiting for your ship to come in? You can’t get to your ship if you don’t go to the pier. Don’t let the takers in life crush your hope. Don’t let that drama in your life be an excuse not to pursue what makes you feel alive. Most parents give up on what they dreamed of when they were younger. I will Wait for the kids to grow up and all that nonsense. These are just excuses to avoid the fear of stepping out of your comfort zone. Go start that business, apply for that job, do something that fuels your fire🕺The more you become uncomfortable pursuing what you love the closer you get to that f#cking pier and welcome your dreams of life.💪 #dramafreeparenting #dramafreezone🚫 #parentingskills #parentingadvice #nevertolatetochange #parentingteensishard #parentingteenagers #momofateen #divorcedparentsproblems #lifewithteenagers #parentingteens #parentproblems #consciousparent #momofteens #parentsofteens #momstress #mommystress #supportingmoms #momblogger #momsupport #dramafreeparenting #divorcedmom #momwithteens #parentingsupport #stepmomadvice #consciousparenting #stressedparents #dramafree #divorcedparentsproblems #divorcedmoms #divorcedmomlife (at Plymouth, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9ov26OFlMm/?igshid=3adugfdpfwxq

What do you fear the most in life? Fear of judgement? Of failure? Of success? The path to our true selves is overcoming the fears in our lives that Hold us back. Are your fears influencing other things in life? The way you parent your child? Our fears are ours and not anyone else’s. Especially our children. If you want to teach your children fearlessness then lead by example. What is one thing you fear in life? Then take that first step to conquer it and move closer to the person you are supposed to become. 💪 #parentingteensishard #parentingteenagers #teenagerssuck #momofateen #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #lifewithteenagers #parentingteens #parentproblems #consciousparent #momofteens #parentsofteens #momstress #mommystress #supportingmoms #momblogger #momsupport #dramafreeparenting #fearholdsyouback #divorcedmom #momwithteens #parentingsupport #stepmomadvice #parentblog #consciousparenting #stressedparents #dramafree #momstruggles #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #divorcedmoms #divorcedmomlife (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9nFm-AFKyK/?igshid=17csylg9hptaz

Are you a failure? Then your not living. A better question to ask yourself because failing to put yourself out there is failing at the wrong level. Do people that play it safe in life actually enjoy it? What are they teaching their children? You Don’t take risks because you might fail. Bullshit. If you don’t take risks you are guaranteed to fail and what does that failure look like? A big ass bunch of regrets 20 years down the line wishing you had done something different. On your deathbed saying I gave up my dreams for my kids, my spouse, my parents? Stuck in a cubicle you hate? Hate your asshole boss? Think you are stuck for a paycheck because you have a family and mortgage. That is all a big steaming bag of bullshit and the story that you are telling yourself because you are afraid to take risks. I will tell you a secret. Sometimes the universe doesn’t give a f#ck about your fears and puts shit in your path to push you into your destiny and what you are supposed to do here. Sometimes it is the worst shit imaginable. #believe me. The weak ones pity themselves and blame everyone else. The heroes take it as a sign, find meaning in all that shit and take action to design the life that they were supposed to live not the one others created for them. So go fail and love it. You will suck but you will get better. I have no idea if anyone reads these rants . Well if you do. I am giving away a signed copy of my warriors of life book for the first 5 people that comment “I am a failure and love it.” The book will teach you the skills I used to overcome challenges in life even the worst tragedy a parent could ever experience. 😇 #parentingteensishard #parentingteenagers #momofateen #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #lifewithteenagers #parentingteens #parentproblems #consciousparent #momofteens #parentsofteens #momstress #mommystress #supportingmoms #momblogger #momsupport #dramafreeparenting #divorcedmom #momwithteens #parentingsupport #stepmomadvice #parentblog #consciousparenting #stressedparents #dramafree #momstruggles #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #divorcedmoms #divorcedmomlife (at Saugus, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9kR1IJFboW/?igshid=1smn4pm4qya61

Given up on your dreams? I read an article and it said that mom’s are significantly less Likely to pursue their passions in life opposed to dad’s who do. Mom’s have you given up all your dreams to raise your children? What happens when they grow up and move off to college? Is then the time to start working on that bucket list? We cannot give up on our dreams in life because, honestly life is way too short. Is there ever a perfect time to do anything? Never!!. Shit will always come up. Stuff will always be going on. There will always be something more important! Those are the lies we tell ourselves and then we wake up 20 years later resenting everyone around us that we sacrificed our own happiness for. The question you need to ask yourself. Has anyone asked me to sacrifice my passions, my chance at designing a life that I want to live? The answer is No. so what are you waiting for? To take that rip of a lifetime when the kids move out, you retire? To pursue that career you always wanted? To start that side business doing something you love? What if you get hit by a bus tomorrow! I love asking this question .🤣 What are your passions? Then what is that step 1 you need to take to pursue them? If you are afraid that is ok. Change is hard but don’t blame others for your inaction. 10 years ago Barbara and I watched the today show in this amazing location at the observatory in Switzerland and said one day we were going to be there. We pursued it and made it happen. Why? Because we wanted to live life not put it on hold. So go conquer your mountain in life and stop waiting for the right time. The right time is now all it takes is to press the play button to start living. The fun is in the chase. #parentingteensishard #parentingteenagers #teenagerssuck #momofateen #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #lifewithteenagers #parentingteens #parentproblems #consciousparent #momofteens #parentsofteens #momstress #mommystress #supportingmoms #divorcedmomlife #momsupport #dramafreeparenting #depressedteenager #divorcedmom #momwithteens #parentingsupport #stepmomadvice #parentblog #consciousparenting #stressedparents #momstruggles #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9jfa8ulJIe/?igshid=1r6uftnb3b7rp

Are your parenting techniques modeled after your parents parenting style? If so, does something need to change?

Did you ever have one of those f#cking days? Things started out great and then comes along someone to mess with your shit. It could be a co-worker, friend, family member, stranger or even your teen. They say something you weren’t expecting and you process it and react. Something hurtful, something we expected from them and it didn’t happen then your ego goes apeshit! How could they say that to me? That is so disrespectful! I give them everything and this is the thanks I get! Ungrateful bunch of assholes! I give and give and this is what I get!Then we put ourselves into this emotional train wreck that f#cks up our entire day. Not only are we hurt and feel bad for ourselves but we strike back because that is what the ego needs. To defend itself from foreign invaders...especially our teenagers. When people strike at us we can choose to react or respond. The magic is in the difference. React is letting our ego control us. I hate you. I hate you. Awesome comeback!!! A response is well thought out without the ego and comes from the heart. So next time someone pushes you into that corner that you created. Think and say to yourself. If I react things will get worse for me and them. However, if I respond (with no emotions)...it could cause a shift in them that they need to change! If not who gives a shit because your day will not be ruined and they will be left thinking about how stupid they feel because their manipulation tactic didn’t work. Living dramafree is easy. We have those choices not anyone else. #parentingteensishard #parentingteenagers #teenagerssuck #momofateen #divorcedparentsproblems #parentingteens #parentproblems #consciousparent #momofteens #parentsofteens #momstress #mommystress #supportingmoms #momblogger #momsupport #dramafreeparenting #depressedteenager #divorcedmom #momwithteens #parentingsupport #stepmomadvice #parentblog #consciousparenting #stressedparents #dramafree #momstruggles #divorcedparentsproblems #divorcedmoms #divorcedmomlife (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9hYB8iFbDH/?igshid=1m6qlnwjvztl3

Were you always told never to make a scene? Never draw attention to yourself? Never to speak what’s on your mind? Never be who you are supposed to be? What are we teaching our children? Should we be teaching them the same guidelines we used in our own lives? Or do you think they deserve better? Because when you are at home with your true self you are a really freakin happy person. Being like others is boring and lame. Boring people never laugh at themselves. Never enjoy the foolish mistakes they make. Honestly they are just so serious they should go to a proctologist and have that stick removed from their ass so they can loosen up and live. Be you and help your child to be who they are supposed to be. That is one of the ancient secrets to happiness because when we are not faking it we are taking it. The it, is control of our own destiny and our authenticity in this world. Embrace your crazy and give your child the same gift. That is when you will discover true happiness. #parentingteensishard #parentingteenagers #teenagerssuck #momofateen #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #lifewithteenagers #parentingteens #parentproblems #consciousparent #momofteens #parentsofteens #momstress #stressedparents #mommystress #supportingmoms #momblogger #momsupport #dramafreeparenting #depressedteenager #divorcedmom #momwithteens #parentingsupport #stepmomadvice #parentblog #consciousparenting #stressedparents #dramafree #momstruggles #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #divorcedmoms #embraceyourcrazy (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9cAeBMF0Jq/?igshid=1i7gja8xzmy5k

When you have nothing to talk about with your teenager. Open up the line of communications with this question. Then ask them if they have any pointers that can help you. Great way for them to possibly open up about what could be causing some challenges in life. Empowering questions brings us closer. Empowered parents ask empowered questions. 💪 #parentingteensishard #parentingteenagers #teenagerssuck #momofateen #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #lifewithteenagers #parentingteens #parentproblems #consciousparent #momofteens #parentsofteens #momstress #stressedparents #mommystress #supportingmoms #momblogger #momsupport #dramafreeparenting #depressedteenager #divorcedmom #momwithteens #parentingsupport #stepmomadvice #parentblog #consciousparenting #stressedparents #dramafree #momstruggles #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #divorcedmoms #divorcedmomlife (at Plymouth, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9bvHR3FFMG/?igshid=13yv2etu8lbar

What is holding you back from finding happiness in life? Your children are going to eventually leave you...unless they have been enabled and live with you into their 40’s. Step Brothers Syndrome. So if the stars align and they move out and find their own life what are your plans to discover passion in your life? Why wait until the empty nest? Why live another day not fueled with the passion of life? Just because you may have some parenting challenges with your teens doesn’t mean it should consume your life. Only if you let it. We have our own power to choose our path and happiness in life and nobody should be given the control over that. Not our children, partners, ex’s, friends or family members. The time is now not tomorrow to go get what you want because you have no idea when the lights will go out and who would want to live with those regrets.🕺 so stand up for yourself and find your happiness because nobody else will. 😀 #parentingteensishard #parentingteenagers #teenagerssuck #momofateen #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #lifewithteenagers #parentingteens #parentproblems #consciousparent #momofteens #parentsofteens #momstress #stressedparents #mommystress #supportingmoms #momblogger #teendepression #momsupport #depressedteenager #divorcedmom #momwithteens #parentingsupport #stepmomadvice #parentblog #consciousparenting #stressedparents #beingamomishard #momstruggles #parentingtips #divorcedparentsproblems #divorcedmoms #divorcedmomlife (at Namale Resort & Spa) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9aAli3FNiQ/?igshid=1hodakx6ykq24
