I never wanted kids EVER growing up. I was so against them that I married a man who shared my views and said, “OK, no kids.” OK. When I got pregnant I asked the universe to make me a decent mother and simply raise a healthy responsible child. I didn’t know about The Secret then, but knew if I just had faith I would be a good mom. Now I have two girls soon aged 11 and 13. Yes. For those who have teenagers you know how difficult this age can be, especially with girls. How about with those who said NO to kids?! Kids are truly impressionable with regard to the media and television/video. I thought, OK I’ve been a mom for a while now, but I’m clueless!!
I bought The Secret a few weeks ago and watched it by myself after a business associate recommended it. My 12/soon to be 13 year old asked to watch it with me the next time I put it in the DVD player. Of course I said OK but said you have to watch it all. I got the typical “Whatever Mom” response. But what followed shocked me. She never moved, never got up , and never left her position except to get closer to the TV. She watched it all and even had tears in her eyes at the same time I did. We have watched it numerous times since and even her 10 year old sister has watched and applied the principles. We now start and end each day with telling each other one thing we are grateful for and almost always it’s that I have a great Mom to wake up to every day.
