The machine my mom still uses

14 January 2010

Last Thanksgiving I traveled all the way to Madison Wisconsin to visit with family and friends. I had not been back to Madison since 1999 when I went away to college and found a job in Southern Nevada. We ended up spending a lot of time at my mothers house and she put on the Thanksgiving dinner for everyone. I wasn’t surprised to see that my mother still had her Husqvarna Sewing Machine in her sitting room. I can’t remember all the times that she had patched up some of my clothes with that magnificent machine. At one point I even got the hang of using the sewing machine and it was kind of fun.

Step Parenting: Hard for you Harder for the Child

14 January 2010

One of the most awkward situations one can enter is sadly one in which a child is the most vulnerable. For whatever reason the childs real parent(s) aren’t with them and now you have to fill that void in some way. Styles for step parenting will vary with the age of the child. But for the most part you should never expect a child to call you “dad” or “mom” right off the bat and (as much as this might distress you) possibly ever. Children have their real parents and are already afraid that their other parents brought you in to replace them. You need to develop a relationship among common interests with the child. For instance my step dad did this with a football team that we loved and this is almost always what we talk about. Be the child’s friend and they will respect you and in between the friendship throw in a few fatherly or motherly gestures such as saying “I love you” or giving them money from time to time. Step parenting is a tough spot to put yourself in but its 100 times harder for the child. Understand that you are doing a great service to a child and that in the end you will mean as much to the child as their biological parents do. Don’t give up on the child ever and if it ever gets hard just relish for the day you hear the words “hi mom” or “see you later dad”.
