SCIENTOLOGY TEXTS ON BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS: VITAL PARENTING SKILLS
Two Rules for Happy Living, from the book Scientology: A New Slant on Life
We want our children to be happy. But will it help them more if we “toughen them up” and help them learn to endure life with its disappointments and injustices? Is happiness an unrealistic goal in today's turbulent society? In the book Scientology: A New Slant on Life Mr. Hubbard took up this question when he wrote, “How to be happy in this universe is a problem few prophets or sages have dared contemplate directly. We find them ‘handling’ the problem of happiness by assuring us that man is doomed to suffering. They seek not to tell us how to be happy but how to endure being unhappy.” Read this essay and work with your child on how he or she can apply these two rules. Use them yourself too. And don't be surprised if life starts looking a lot brighter! The book Scientology: A New Slant on Life in which this essay appears can be ordered online from Bridge Publications or New Era Publications International.
Scientology Essay on Kindness
Is it a mistake to teach your child to be kind, or to treat him or her too gently? Are you setting your child up to lose in the competitive world of the 21st century? Does Scientology philosophy have an answer to these questions? Mr. Hubbard addressed this when he wrote: “There's hardly one of us who hasn't asked himself the question, ‘Isn't it better to be mean?’ Almost every one of us has had the feeling that we were a bit soft.” You may be surprised at the answers to these questions. But if you apply this information with your kids and in your relationships with others we are confident you will see real improvement in your life and in theirs too.
Scientology Skills for Effective Communication
Scientology practitioners sometimes hear parents complain that their kids won't listen to them. And it's not surprising that kids say the same thing about their folks. This web site is a compilation of Scientology articles on the subject of communication. A Scientologist, dealing with parents and children will often have them both study this material. Things start to calm down almost right away. It also helps with brothers and sisters who can't get along. And, frankly, who among us wouldn't benefit from being able to communicate better?
Mr. Hubbard even developed drills to help the individual learn how to improve communication, and there is a course offered at any Scientology church or mission, called the Success Through Communication Course. This course in communication will make an enormous difference in any aspect of your life and it will do wonders for your children.
Scientology Principles That Can Help Parents and Kids Understand One Another
In Scientology churches we often find that parents who are having trouble with their kids (and vice versa) will admit they “don't understand how they could have _____”. Maybe you have experienced the feeling that your children are even refusing to understand your point of view. Whether you are looking for solutions to such a problem or you simply want to improve your relationship with your kids, you will find answers in the basic Scientology technology on this web site. L. Ron Hubbard discovered the components of understanding and these are presented here. If you are serious about wanting to better things with your children, take a moment to read this information, and then try using what you have learned with your kids. We are confident you will be thrilled with the results. And if you will take a few more minutes to send us some feedback, that will help us even more to help other parents like you!
