Parenting Wheel of Life


by Cindy Goldrich, M.Ed

As parent, there are many different roles you play in your children’s lives.  The Parenting Wheel of Life is a straightforward and easy to use tool to help you explore the concept of “balance” in your life.  How satisfied are you with your success with each role you play?

Below are two samples of Wheels that represent some of the different aspects of parenting.  Complete the wheel to discover what areas of your parenting you feel successful in and what areas you want to enhance for your whole family’s balance.

You can look at either one and rank your level of satisfaction with each life area by drawing a line from the center, which represents NOT SATISFIED, to the outer edge, which represents VERY SATISFIED.  Feel free to change or add to these to reflect your life’s concerns

The new perimeter represents your Wheel of Life.



How Bumpy is Your Ride?
