One on One

(May 2007) (rank 146th)

As parents with lots to do during the day (and our own problems) I have come to realize that if we do not make it a point to kiss, hug or say we love our children we end up not doing this. I have two boys and I allocate 30mins

to each child everyday. I do this mainly in the evening just before their bedtime. During this time each child is able to tell me what happened at school and how the day went. I also use this time to settle any issues between the two of them. I always try to explain to the eldest who is six that he has to be patient with his kid brother who always starts the fight. Although I play with both of them during the day this time is enjoyed so much by them that we all look forward to it.

I'm a huge believer in One on One time. I tell my boys constantly that I love them and they never get sick of hearing it.

Yes, you are quite right. I have been lucky. I have a large age gap between my 2 kids and have found it great as I have been able to spend lots of one on one time with each of them. I understand that it must be harder trying to find the time when you have a larger family with all of the daily stresses we all endure. A well written piece, thanx

Yes you have to tell your kids you love them,I give my 2 young children a kiss and cuddle every morning before they go to school and also tell them i love them. My eldest son 22 years old always gives me a cuddle when i take him home. I did the same with my father until i was 32 years old, when he died he was my father my mate and my best friend. And at the age of nearly 50 i still cry at his grave side, love never ends.
