Whether your son or daughter is headed off to college, the military, or the workforce, you can be intentional about launching them into a God-honoring life.
“Train up a child in the way they should go, and when they are old, they will not depart from it.”
Proverbs 22:6
Tips for Being Intentional with your Senior this Year:
Whether your son or daughter is headed off to college, the military, or the workforce, you can be intentional about helping them ‘takeoff’ into a God honoring life.
Recognize the emotions: You and your senior are full of emotions, anxiety, stress, pride, eagerness, and yes excitement! Remember the process of leaving isn’t automatic and will sometimes feel like 1 step forward and two steps backwards.
Make the most: Leaving is a natural part of growing up, make the most of the remaining time, your child has at home creating memories, having important conversations, and enjoying each others company.
Make time: Plan time each week (or as often as possible) with your senior, make a date, start a new hobby you both enjoy, take a walk, be creative.
Make it count: Talk with your senior about more than just the daily/weekly plan. Need ideas? Download our Tools4Takeoff workbook.
Have fun: Find things you enjoy doing together. Savor and enjoy these moments.
