Bounderies are meant to keep partners in check and not to keep them restrained, if there's any restrain, it should be in not doing things that will make your partner feel less of himself/herself.

One consistent sign that you are either a good parent or that you are at least trying, is the fact that you are always showing for your kids in special moments and events of their life no matter how inconveniencing it is to you, if you aren't doing so, then you are already missing one of the most important aspect of parenting.

Beings a parent is much more than a title, it's a huge responsibility that must be treated with uttermost seriousness and complete dedication. If you must succeed, you must be intentional in being all of the above and even more.

Being a good parent doesn't necessarily mean you are perfect but it bothers on being intentional about your kids.

If you are intentional about your kid's growth and needs, you will definitely help them be better people in the society.

Parenting can be very much overwhelming and stressful but you must employ the use of patience if you must navigate parenting successfully.

No one stumbles on parenting by mistake, rather it is an intentional act and that is why it must be done intentionally for one to become a good parent.

The final sign of an adequately prepared man/woman for marriage is that there is peace in the relationship/courtship and by peace, I dont just mean that there wouldn't be misunderstandings and disagreements, there would but it won't come in between the way they feel about themselves.

Marriage preparation is an intentional effort to do marriage in a way that even when issues arise in the marriage or relationship it is easily navigated by two ready individuals.
