About this ebook

A book that aims to help parents better fulfill their role, to raise awareness of the issues, but also to realize the chance they have of being able to experience a formidable adventure with their child.


I wrote this book because I think many parents would like to know a few simple methods to overcome their anxieties in the face of this great responsibility. Some would like to try to understand what the role of a parent should be and how to achieve it. Others would like to find some milestones or milestones on the long way of parenting to help them identify theirs …


You will find tips and tricks to help you better understand your child from the belly of the mother and until adolescence, but also to allow you to consciously help your child grow.

    I. Introduction

    There are many people, if not an overwhelming majority, who do not ask themselves important questions before giving birth to a child.

    I am not talking here about the children who come to the world by accident, because if the accident occurred it is a proof that his/her parents haven't asked themselves too many questions about the future and the motivations of the existence of this child.

    A child should not come into the world by chance or by accident, because he/she has the right, like every human being, to be born for him(her)SELF. The child did not ask anything to anyone, and especially not to arrive on this earth. So, as responsible adults, we should all ask ourselves lots of questions before becoming a parent and especially not fall into the trap of perpetuating the species.

    If the human being has evolved, it is because he has a conscience ... I think he has the duty to use it!

    My son, who is thirteen years old when I am writing this book, asked me the other day if I think that plants have a conscience. I told him the truth, as I have tried to do every time he asks me a question, telling him that I do not think anything, because I have not thought enough about it. I explained to him that in order to have an opinion it is necessary to think and not simply reproduce the opinions of others.

    I imagined that he would stop his questioning there, even though deep down I was hoping he would not let go the subject and be happy just with my answer. For thirteen years I have been working for this. To get him to wake up his own conscience and help him to use it.

    I was pleased to see that this work is giving results, because he has not gone away or moved on, but he asked me if I had not thought about it, then what am I thinking right away? He pushed me, in his own way, to cogitate, just like us, his parents, we urge him to do it as often as possible. Reflecting by himself without taking the others' assertions as true or valid, passing them through his own filter to see if the theory is right, consistent with the reality around us…

    I have then begun to reason aloud with him to his question about a possible existence or not of a plant consciousness. I could have meditated on my own and give him a finished answer, just as I could have replied by what was going on in my head like many parents who do not realize the importance of seeking a true explanation for their children, but also for themselves!

    Children ask questions to grow up, to understand what is happening to them, what life is like…

    It is difficult to imagine that our assertions, as trivial as they may appear at first sight, are important in the evolution of a human being. I think that if the parents really realized this, and especially the handicaps they create in the minds of their children for lack of answers, they would think several times before replying to a question.

    And I am not speaking here of an existential questioning like that of the consciousness of a plant, but of the much simpler ones that arrive at your ears every day as parents: Why is this person annoyed?, Why do you have to be careful with a knife?, Why are you sad?, Why do you laugh?, Why are we going to school? What is respect?, What is love?, and so on.

    There are thousands of questions like these that you surely hear from the kids, whether they're yours or not ... As a matter of fact, it's not because a child is not yours that you have not to make the effort to think before giving a ready-made answer. Because you have the same responsibility to him or her as an adult, as to your own child! Since s/he came to ask YOU this question!

    You should know that if a child questions you, it is not like when an adult speaks to you. A child does not provoke you, even if in adolescence many questions can take on such a deceptive appearance. A child does not come as a hypocrite to ask you a question for which the answer does not matter! He/she does not want to brag either, neither to impress you by his/her vast culture ... Nor to set you a trap or what else do I know of other twisted reasons that are the specialty of adults…

    I think ( but I may be wrong ... We have to know to question ourselves and to doubt our own reflections, adapt to the changing reality and life that offers us examples to enrich our analyzes and beliefs ... ) that a child or a teenager comes to ask a question without a hidden reason. His consciousness, sometimes even his subconscious, is preoccupied with this interrogation and seeks a way to understand ... And even if he has a beginning of response, he may feel lost because he does not have the experience to be able to make choices between the possibilities resulting from his reflections.

    Think honestly that even as an adult we often feel confused and feel the need to seek outside advice in order to help us see things from another point of view. Imagine then as this must be vital for a child or a teenager who does not have your life experience!

    But back to the analysis of what happened with my son.

    So I have begun to think out loud with him to help him learning to think by himself. I told him about the experiments I had heard about the effect of music on plants. That a certain type of music (classical in particular) had a positive influence on their growth. He was not aware of all this and was astonished to find out. I asked him if he thinks that music, which is a form of art and not a mixture of nutrients, could affect the growth of a plant if it had no consciousness. He did not reply, but my goal was not even to have a feedback immediately, but to make him think and question himself, something he did and his subconscious continued to do so after the end of our conversation.

    I remember the time when I had a whole collection of cacti, because these plants fascinated me ... I was almost my son's age. And I talked to my plants quite often, since I had heard that it could have an influence on them ... The bottom line is that I had the clear impression that it was changing things ... I was already doing my own experiments at the time to check the veracity of what I had heard. Then I was talking to some cacti
