It’s time to finally wrap up and put a bow around the 12 habits of Wise families! Although it was only 12 habits, it appears that it has taken me twice as long to share them with you as intended! I think we were supposed to wrap up back in April! Well, as my 15-year-old would say, “YOLO!” Just doing the best I can!
We have gotten hundreds of comments from all of you by email, snail mail and social media sharing your Wise family habits – and providing us with countless giggles and food-for-thought along the way. We LOVE your feedback and we’ll keep working to make sure we are learning right along with you!
We’ve been busy in The Wise Family digs with writing, mapping, funneling and growing – we hope you have been too (well, maybe not funneling but, hey, whatever). Let’s pull together the 12 habits for review:
There you have it! There are tons of blogs, books and bitches that judge your parenting! Take what works and toss the rest!
What would happen in your family if you made a commitment to practice just one habit that you need to work on this summer? Share your thoughts in the comments below or visit us in the social stratosphere! Remember, YOLO!
Be Wise!
“Supporting the mental health of the kids and teens in our community is one of the most challenging and also one of the most important jobs anyone could have. And I see your team doing it with both skill and enthusiasm.Our family could not be more fortunate to have found your practice 3 years ago.
Our kids are growing up but we still keep your number on our phone and we know we can reach out to your team if we need it. We tell everyone who asks about the WISE people at The Wise Family.
Thank you for doing what you do for so many people.”—from the parent of two former clients (siblings)
— Parent of two former clients (siblings)“I don’t think we could survive our kid without The Wise Family. Our clinician is so patient and such a compassionate person. She helps our child feel so in control of his body, and us so in control of our parenting.”
— Parent of 6 year old client“We read through your website from start to finish and were so impressed by your extensive credentials and training but, the real reason why we want to work with you is your clear enthusiasm for children and families and the wisdom and deep love you share for both!”
