I've been saying this for years and I'll keep saying it. Let your child be the leader. This goes against what we are often taught. But there are many reasons this remains my message. As I've said before, kids are team members, not property. They are people, not robots to do your will. Learn how kids can stay aligned when you let them lead.
Children Are Born Aligned; Empower Them

When you let your child be the leader, this teaches them to do just that for their future. It also shows them you know they have assets that you don't and that you care what they think,
feel, and do. This can help empower them on their journey. Truth be told, our children are born aligned with their inner self. It is growing up in society that makes it so we have to reconnect with ourselves later in life.
Shut Up And Listen To Them

As parents, it is not our job to make little molds of what we want. It is our job to prepare our kids for the world. To get anywhere in life and to remain aligned, they need to believe in themselves. They need to know that who they are matters and being unique is okay. Observe who your child really is. Let them just be. Show them how to meditate but do not tell them what to meditate about. Give them the tools to draw and write and see what they come up with. Ask them what they are thinking and then shut up and listen. I know that part is hard for some of us. But it's important for your child.

A Child's Place

Do you know what's inside your child's head? There's a wealth of knowledge there that many never access because it is often suppressed in disguise of people saying they need to  "be put in a child's place". Okay. Well, around here, we flip it up a bit.  Instead of being a quiet place of restriction, a child's place is as the leader. They ARE the future leaders and in order to learn to do it, they need to just be one. The best place to "train" for that is in the arms of ones who love them - their parents - you.
Let Them Lead

Again, let them be your leader. They have a lot to teach you that you may not be listening to. If you already are, that's great. If this hit a nerve, it's never too late to get started. When we put too much authority over children, we can unintentionally stifle their natural curiosity, excitement, and gifts. It's OK to redirect when they might harm themselves or others - or in other critical instances, but the key is to let them be who they are. This is, in my opinion one of the best ways to help them keep that natural Chi. Be mindful of when and how you redirect. They must absolutely be themselves, so any forms of guidance should be geared toward not taking away from that.
