For many parents caught up in work, finding time to bond with their kids can be a real challenge. How can working parents strike a balance between their job and family time?
Here are 5 simple tips:
1. Keep work at work. When you step into your home, leave all your work problems behind the door.
2. Spend quality time with your kids. By doing so, your children will know that they matter to you.
3. Have a family day. This strengthens your family bond and makes it even more solid.
4. Attend school events whenever possible. While it might not be feasible to attend every school event your child has, going as much as you can is a way to show your support.
5. Be a 'friend' to your kids. Even if you're swamped with work, never forget your role as a parent. Be approachable to them, allowing them to express all their feelings.
