Both reactions are common and natural.   Be calm. Th

DAY 7  (Things on their minds) Our Father our children have so many things on their minds.

The Child's Prayer:  Dear Jesus, help me not to worry but be very thoughtful with all my decisions and choices amen. Notes to Parents:   It's important that we teach our children to think vs worry.

Amen Notes to Parents:   Does your child have behavior problems? Your relationship with your child likely needs some attention. A parent's relationship with his or her child will be reflected in the child's actions -- including child behavior problems, Ruby Natale  PhD, PsyD, professor of clinical pediatrics at the University of Miami Medical School  explains. "If you don't have a good relationship with your child, they're not going to listen to you. Think about how you r

DAY 4  (GYM - Guard Your Mind) Father, we adore you. We pray over the lives of our children today... Guard their minds against the deception and cunning devices being used to enslave their minds and capture their souls. They are so drawn to technology and media.

Psalm 127:4-5   English Standard Version (ESV) Like arrows in the hand of  a warrior      are the children [ a ]  of one's youth.   Blessed is the man      who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame      when he speaks with his enemies  in the gate. [ b ] DAY 3  (We Bless These Arrows) Lord so many of us as parents are very much in our youth and young adult years, we ask that we will see with clarity how we must guide and direct your children, according to your words and instructions so our children will be a blessing every single day of their lives.

DAY 1 (Feeling loved in an environment free of criticism) Heavenly Father , help me to love my child/children and also meet my child's/children's need(s) to feel loved. Teach us how to deal with the problems of our children/child not actually feeling loved . The Child's Prayer: Dear God, please teach my parents, caregivers, guardians, teachers, siblings, those I interact with, and others how to love me and make me feel loved. Show them I   will almost never feel loved while being criticized. Notes to Parents:   It isn’t enough to love our children. Essentially, we all do that, yet we will still have problems. That’s because, if a child doesn’t actually  feel  he or she is loved, it often won’t matter how much the parents love the child. There needs to be  an absence of criticism. F eeling loved  and  not being criticized  receive equal importance on the chart of a child's need and is described as  the one thing a developing child needs above all
