Scientology Kids & Parents

  Parenting is an adventure, and as far as I’ve observed, no parent goes into parenting totally prepared for the challenges, and the utter joy they’re in for as a parent.   Any parent deserves to be as fully-armed as they can be with tools they can use to make the best of the challenges they’ll face as a parent, to the end of being able to raise happy, healthy children – and be happy, healthy parents at the end of it too! Scientology has an immense wealth of tools the parent … [Read more...]

Children are People Too, Right?

Courtesy of the Scientology Parent blog   Of course we all know that children are people too, not some unknown species. As a parent, we may do very well with this concept. However, surprisingly a lot of the things some parents do in the handling of their children goes against this simple concept: Children are men and women, just like you and me. L. Ron Hubbard stated the following in an essay entitled How to Live with Children published in his book Scientology: A New Slant on … [Read more...]

Scientology beliefs on raising children

children

  How to raise a happy, healthy child is not something most parents are taught. In fact, many just stumble through the entire process, albeit with the best intentions. Consequently, it is all too common to find an unhappy state of affairs in families, with constant friction between parents and children. It is not a natural state of affairs. In fact, it can be avoided entirely. L. Ron Hubbard developed many methods to bring out the best in a child—and its parents. In this course, … [Read more...]

Family & Scientology – How I Became a Scientologist

I’ve been asked a few different times about how my own religious beliefs and practices will figure into my children, and whether I assume that they will be Scientologists as well.   Obviously, it’s a major item of discussion in current media,  and as such I think it’s somewhat appropriate (as a second-generation Scientologist) to note how it was that I came into Scientology. A college anthropology student sent me a question related to a study for a class she was taking on how one’s … [Read more...]
