30 Days to Becoming a Better Parent Day 23: Serving Others

I used to be a a Rotarian and their creed is “Service Above Self”, thus for me it is important to be able to live this on a daily basis and also espouse it to my children with the hope that they will follow my example as they grow older.

Some questions you should ask yourself include:

• How do you and your child serve others?
• What are some activities that you and your child can do together that will serve others in your community?

In researching this topic I came across a few sites that I thought that I would share with all of you:

• http://www.scumdoctor.com/parenting/preschool/Teaching-Preschoolers-About-Serving-Others.html
• http://www.mynaturalfamily.com/family-advice/teaching-children-about-service/
• http://www.teachingkidstocare.com/caring.html
• http://www.yeskidzcan.com/

Today’s task is for you to answer the above questions as well as review the above articles. What are your thoughts regarding this topic? Make a list of the ways that you serve others on a daily/weekly basis. Once you have completed these tasks, come back and share your thoughts with the rest of the group.

If you are so inclined please leave your responses in a comment below or link to a blog post if you are going to commit to joining me on this journey so that others can learn from you as well. Good luck with day 23 and I look forward to your thoughts and comments!
