Children. Coming to know another person
Who are your children, beyond being your children? A conversation about how a child's arrival changes family life, about karmic connections, freedom, and each person's unique life. Rather than rushing to assume you already know another person, keep observing them.

What to keep in mind
The personal discussions address particular participants. They do not determine your child's destiny, qualities, or needs.
Is this a session on parenting?
No. It is a spiritual consideration of children and family connections. The author's karmic explanations and examples are not a diagnosis of a child or ready-made instructions for every family.
