Here is a few things that I have learn. 1) the pain of childbirth. 2) How to breastfeed. 3) To be more patient. 4) It's ok to ask for help. 5) They think things are real even when they are not. Like Cartoon. My kids watch kids Teenage ninja turles. When my son was 3 he flushed our real turtle down the toilet. When I asked why he said I wantted him to go see his friends. Like on TV. 6) You can't stop everything. 7) You always learn new things. I have learn more but that is a few. Now I wish to know what you have learn from yours. Thanks.

I learned to "pick my battles'" I learned to trust them and they will return that trust. I learned to accept their flaws, even if it means his papers are not finished until 2 am the night before they are due. I learned to spend "alone" time with each of my kids. I learned to take time for myself.

I have never had children and don't know if it's a blessing or a curse, or somewhat of both. Sometimes I wish I had kids and other times when I see the things kids do and the things that are done to them, so who can say?

Wow, what a question. I have learned so much from my kids when they were young and even more as they are out on their own. They have taught me that my way is not the only way and their way will work too. They have taught me patience, empathy, and love. They have taught me that to bring up a child to believe in honesty, trust and values, that I have to believe in them, trust them, and support them in their decisions, along with guiding them along the way. Today my daughter is 25 and my son is 22, and both are a lot further along than I ever was at their ages. When they talk they make sense and my son especially is planning his life from the mistakes he has seen me make. Proud of both of them.

me and my sis have learned to be real patient. let them be kids. your house will be a mess. you can't always protect them but always let them know that your there for them. not all kids are not the same and that is ok. my son is 8 and thinks that pokemon live in alabama. he wants to catch one. and how your kids are very much like you. my nephew walks just like his dad. and he is 3. it is soo funny.
