Note: This is the first guest post I've published here on the Better Husbands and Fathers blog and its an important one, so pay attention! It comes from Julie Sibert. Julie is a writer and speaker on sexual intimacy in marriage. You can follow her blog at www.IntimacyInMarriage.com (or @Intimacy4Life on Twitter). She lives in Omaha, Neb., with her Beloved, their two sons and their rambunctious German Shorthair Pointer puppy.
My husband and I have a saying we use with our children – “As long as you keep presenting teachable moments, we’re going to teach.” Usually, the 12-year-old musters up an eye roll in response to this. To which we exclaim, “See! There’s a teachable moment. No more eye rolls. It’s disrespectful. And annoying.” (He offers another eye roll).
