1} That we wanted them to become a "good" person...we let them puzzle out what a "good" person was, to the extent possible, tried to model the behavior we hoped for, and pointed out obvious examples of good behavior in everyday life...
2} That we wished them a "happy" life...to that end we encouraged any interests they expressed, and did our best to share in the joys they discovered for themselves...
We exposed them to as many new opportunities and interests as possible, then let them choose which they would like to repeat...this part was by far the most difficult because of varied interests...
When there were disagreements between them--sibling rivalry--we encouraged them to solve problems themselves...can't count the number of times we said things like, "You both want to sit in that chair at the same time, but that's not possible...how can you solve this problem?"
Parenting is likely the most difficult job on the plant...so far everything seems to be on track...
