Family health takes center stage when we look at the crisis gripping our core values in the Americas and across the globe. Cultures across the lands all look at the family unit differently and thus as they aspire to blend-in to the various sub cultures across the US and abroad there are challenging circumstances that create both positive and negative experiences when it comes to family health.
Family dynamics create varying degrees of emotional stress. From the kids first step, to their first car and then off to college or the workplace. A family goes through many cycles. One of our favorite web sites for families is managed by Shannon Minnick so plesae join us over there from time to time at Marriage Peace.Com
Why Do We Need Supplements?
The mere practice of exporting your cultural beliefs into a foreign country can be very exciting. It can also lead to being singled out as different and thus providing a less than favorable environment to prosper emotionally or economically. Children of families moving to foreign countries have both the easiest of times adapting to the most difficult. Once again, the stress that is present is multiplied on the families with older children in their early to late teens.
Parents should take special notice on their children of within this age range as they tend to suffer inwardly and not show a lot of emotion for fear of being viewed as a failure. The stress mounting on them can be far reaching and greatly effect the overall family health as a group.
Taking extra time to listen to their concerns and perhaps allow them to design family functions in and around their new surroundings can greatly improve their ability to feel localized and thus create a well rounded positive impact to the overall family health and happiness.
Many families use sports and recreation to start the blending process. This is a terrific way to allow your entire family to assimilate into their new surroundings. Sports tend to bring families together. Of course we are speaking of those on the same team of course, just kidding. By introducing your child to a new or perhaps existing sport you also combine the entire family into the exprience and the positive impact to the family and it will self promote a good solid family health foundation. Let's not forget the impact on health and fitness that sports provide either.
We are fighting a major battle against obesity in the pre-teen age range. This is so serious that most nations are forecasting this as the potential meltdown of their economic structure not terror! For more on obesity please see our section covering this topic.
Our children are growing up faster than ever. They are exposed to things that we as parents never even heard of which can effect the overal family health concerns. Ok, for those who watched the space aged Jetson's I take that back. Our kids are way advanced and bombarded by things from all sorts of media platforms.
But when it gets back to their personality and their beliefs it's a real simple process. The family unit drives their mental outlook on life. Thus the reference to the mirror above. We as parents are mirrors to our children. What we say and what we do they are forever emersed in.
Do as I say not as I do? I don't think so. If you say it and then do it differently they react to this in a confused manor. Perhaps making their own decisions. Physical acts are far more powerful than words so assume what you do is how they act not as you say.
By setting good role model examples your children will learn the right ways to behave. Behavior as we look at it from their respect of others to the way they treat their bodies and choose the right foods to build a solid lifestyle around. It all starts at the top so if you don't like the direction a child is going it's probably something you are portraying.
Peer group pressure is level two in most cases. A strong peer to our children can and will influence them. However, if you are communicative and open to listening to your child then even a strong peer can be managed effectively without creating an Us vs Them complex. A child with a strong peer group is most likely going to side wtih the peer vote if forced into a corner. Make it their choice and bank on your solid foundation and communicating skills to enhance their view point.
Also, before we leave this topic, don't be afraid to leave your kids time to think and be alone with their thoughts. We as parents tend to think we need to do everything for them and lay it out in advance. You know what? Drop that right here and now. They will be much better adults if they fail a few times on their own. Let them be bored every now and then.
