Parents Are Lifeguards

On a recent trip to the Pacific Coast of California, I realized that parenting is a lot like being a lifeguard: 

✅ watchful but not intruding; 
✅ prepared but not arrogant ; 
✅friendly but able to impose safeguarding rules ; 
✅very fit : mentally , psychologically, and physically; 
✅able to ask for help when in crisis ; 
✅ flexible and curious ( versus rigid or chaotic ); 
✅grateful to be in service of those who need protection. 

Currently, parents have the hardest job in the world, mainly because the single – family – unit is an absolute failure as a model for human development. For millennia, humans lived and raised their children in small communities, hunter-gatherers, in harmony with each other, plants, animals and nature at large.

No mom or dad was ever alone in raising their young. The burden is too heavy; the risks are too high. 

My message today is very clear: build your tribe. Ask for help. Get support. If you think you’re doing a “good job “ while alone, you’re not. It’s simply not possible.
