We all know of course, that we should never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever fiddle around in any way with electrical equipment. never.
Way Should Equipment
In a sense, in the area of child care, children's relationships with parents' working has come full circle. we have gone from the mom-and-pop store (or mom-and-pop farm), with its integration of child care and work, to children-at-home and dad-at-work; to the mom-plus-daddy working at home, with its integration of childcare and work again. from mom-and-pop back to mom-and-pop.
Mom Children Dad
Visitation reflects the era of the absentee father; parent time influences the re-emergence of the involved father. visitation reflects the destruction of the family; parent time influences the reconstruction of the family. parent time influences an era that understands that as either parent loses, so lose the children.

A friend is more than a therapist or confessor, even though a friend can sometimes heal us and offer us god's forgiveness. a friend is that other person with whom we can share our solitude, our silence, and our prayer. a friend is that other person with whom we can look at a tree and say, "isn't that beautiful," or sit on the beach and silently watch the sun disappear under the horizon. with a friend we don't have to say or do something special. with a friend we can be still and know that god is there with both of us.
Beautiful Beach Prayer
Think of each wound as you would of a child who has been hurt by a friend. as long as that child is ranting and raving, trying to get back at the friend, one wound leads to another. but when the child can experience the consoling embrace of a parent, she or he can live through the pain, return to the friend, forgive, and build up a new relationship. be gentle with yourself, and let your heart be your loving parent as you live your wounds through.
Hurt Children Pain
People talked about being a parent, or being a mother or a father. we don't talk about "wiving" our husbands or "friending" our friends, or "childing" our parents. we just talk about being in a relationship with those people. you don't measure whether your marriage was good based on whether or not your husband is better now than he was 10 years ago, or whether your friend is richer than when they first became your friend. the relationships between parents and children is a kind of love, rather than a kind of work.

For me it's absolutely the same - i treat one and the other in exactly the same way. as persons, that is, not as men and women. but, even here, you have to consider the fact that i've had a very special education, that i'm the daughter of a man like my father and a woman like my mother.
