"I WANT to model generosity and serving them, but right now I'm beginning to
think the end result just might be kids who just sit back and expect others
to do it all for them."


***I want to share my thoughts on this issue. The word modeling connotates
molding or shaping. I don't model cleaning joyously in my home. I clean
joyously as a way to live my life with joy. I don't clean with the intention
that my children will pick up the same attitudes and behaviors. I want them
to have the freedom to be authentic. I live the way I choose because it
feels better to clean with joy. I am not actively trying to get a result (ie
them loving cleaning).

The same with teaching. To teach something is to assume that one person
knows and another person doesn't.
