I am teaching mindfulness to school-age kids. In public schools in my community and as I speak with them and ask questions (non-judging), and as they speak back with such honesty to me I become aware (mindful) of why kids behave the way they do. For instance:
- We need to never speak down or judge their honesty.
- We need to listen more
- We need to let them talk without stopping them from how or what they wishes to say what’s on their mind.
- We need to know their friends. Like, Really KNOW their friends.
- Know their families
- Know their music
- Listen to their music
- Really listen to their music!
- We need to be MINDFUL about our child!!!
Be REALLY mindful about everything they do and say.
I am doing this research on why kids become who they are as adults. Who they become. Even if they are good citizens they sometimes do wrong. Or they become an extremely good family person or a great business man or a awesome human being…or even a a very bad man with all the other traits! What is the cause of all above? Are you good or evil? That’s something to think about as a parent ..,no matter if you are great parent!
I just want to know how we deal with life starting from a child? Is that it? I am not completely sure. I just know I want to know about kids behavior today… then later in life, the same kid as an adult. Is there such a research? I need it to be based on Mindfulness. Do I make sense? Tell me..
As for kids behavior that misbehave. Is it their tradition? Is it culture? Is it lifestyle? Is it ancestors? Is it the food? The water? What about religion ?Race…Ethnic background? DNA? Movies? Music? Rich or poor?
WHAT IS IT? I need help here!
I watched the Ted Buddy Tapes last night. It was very painful to watch! They spoke of his childhood… so many things popped in my head! My friends that had some traits similar to his childhood. My childhood. The way he spoke… the sounds of his voice. The way he spoke of his childhood. I had questions. I wanted to know his diet. His medication… did he have any? His doctors. Did he have one? The movie didn’t say. I had no answer to my questions! I will try to find out more later…Bummer…
Next…I watched the Killer Kids on Netflix. OMG!!! I was on a roll. If you are a parent do NOT watch this. Just get closer to your kids please! This movie brings up many more questions that I am seeking answers for…
Talk to your kids today and every day.
