Hug your children more often. Regardless of whether they are male or female, three years old or thirty.
Ignore the dirty socks and underwear in their bedroom floor. In the grand scheme of things they won't really matter when the kids are grown and gone.
If the mess in the kid's room bothers you, shut the bedroom door.
If given the choice of working late or making it to a Little League game, go to the game.
Share an ice-cream cone with a kid.
Give a child a goldfish.
Don't just tell your children you love them, tell them why.
Next time you are tempted to buy a child a video game, buy them a book instead.
Read with your children if not to your children.
Send your child cards and letters, even if they live with you.
Watch the news with your children and discuss it with them.
Help your children with their homework, but don't do it for them.
If you don't want your children to repeat it, don't let them hear you say it.
Watch what your children watch on television.
If you allow your children access to the Net, implement parental controls and review history to see where your child is surfing.
Take your children to visit people in a retirement home.
Teach your children to cook whether they are male or female.
If you need a babysitter, hire one. Don't use your parents as a dumping ground for your night on the town.
If you are not sure you can afford to send your child support check for the month, send it anyway. Chances are you won't starve and your support should be as certain as death and taxes. P.S. Send it on time.
If you have differences with your ex or current mate, don't try and settle it in front of the children.
Try and develop a working relationship with your ex-spouse as it relates to your children and let the past be just that, past.
