Anyone not want to turn into their parents?

If I ever have children one day I don't want to make all the mistakes mine did. E.g

Tell daughters they have to be married just to leave home.

Don't give the eldest more independance, even when they're good

Play favourites

Be autocratic

I don't want to be paranoid about people and think that anyone who is not family or "our kind of people" are out to get me

I don't want to sacrifice today for a tomorrow that won't come or one where my health will be too poor to enjoy it

I don't want to hide my love so that my children question if I ever loved them

I don't want to hide my praise so that my children question if I was ever proud of them

I don't want to embarrass my children by criticising them in public to all who will listen

I don't want to buy and hoard mountains of cheap "stuff" just because it's cheap and I might need it one day

I don't want to play each of my children off against one another

I don't want to spend all my time working so that I leave my children to their own devices most of the time

 

That'll do for now.
