We've identified learning disorders and new educational techniques. We give our children every advantage we can afford, and some we cannot afford. We organize, direct, enroll, coach, and transport our children to and from lessons, games, practices, social events, doctor's appointments and schools. We are trying to be good parents and give our children all they need to develop into well rounded and successful adults. We may, however, be missing the very core of our child's being, his spirituality.
Spirituality is the base from which grows self-esteem, values, morals, and a sense of belonging.
It is what gives life direction and meaning. All children begin life with an innate sense of wonder about their world. They are naturally intuitive and open. We, as parents, can foster this precious state of being with our words, actions, and attentiveness. Where there is wonder there is spirituality.
