My Visions and Goals for my Children

My Vision for Cameron

For Cameron to love and be loved.

To be kept safe from harm.

To be part of the world around him.

To enrich peoples lives and teach people to be open and accepting of others needs.




For Cameron’s Siblings

I want them to enjoy their childhood with Cameron.

To know he is different, but still the same.

To know how to help Cameron and include him in their lives, but also know that he cant always be included but that’s ok.

To know that its ok to get frustrated and upset with/for and about Cameron sometimes, we have these feelings because we love him and care for him and want the best for him.

I want them to be proud to introduce Cameron to their friends and have him around.

When they grow older I want them to look back with fond memories. To remember the good times. To also remember the not-so-good times but in a way that makes them proud of how far our family came, and to admire strength of our family.



My Aims and Goals for all my children

I want my children to grow up knowing they are loved and are important.

Knowing that although I won’t always be happy with what they do, and the decisions they make, I will always love them.

I want them to know how to respect others and treat them with kindness, and empathy.

I want them to know about the world. To know they cant always believe everything they hear or see. To challenge their thinking. To challenge the thinking of others in a positive and open way. To think outside the box.

I want them to gain as much knowledge as they can, and use that knowledge for good.
To create good things, to share good things, to have an understanding of the world around them.

To know that they don’t have to agree with everyone. EVEN their parents.

I want them to fight for what they and others around them believe in, and what is important to them, as long as in doing this they are not hurting or causing grief to others, or breaking laws*. I want them to hold strong to their beliefs but still be open to the beliefs of others.

*I am ok with them questioning laws and fighting against unjust laws, just not breaking them.

I never want them to bully another, or to put another person down, or make harsh judgments on others.

I want them to be able to stick up for those who are bullied. To help those who may be in harms way.

I want them to be happy, but understand that sadness, grief, anger, frustration (etc)all need to be experienced too.
