Today, my guest, Denny Hagel, co-author of “The Law of Attraction: The Next Generation”, writes about teaching your children the Law of Attraction. Denny is co-owner of Innovative Parenting LLC, home to the “Missing Secret to Parenting”, a company dedicated to helping parents empower their children with an understanding of the law of attraction at work in their lives, thus providing them with the skills to live their best life!
Millions of people worldwide not only have an awareness of the Universal Law of Attraction, but are actively implementing these principles into their lives to deliberately create what they truly desire.
The latest phenomenon that is gathering great momentum is the desire of many of these same people, who are parents, wanting to share this powerful information with their children.
The most often asked question I receive is “How can I teach this powerful information to my children so that they will understand it?” My first response is always an unequivocally, “Live it…Model it!”
Parents are the number one resource of information for their children. Children gather information from their parents to form their opinions, ideas, and attitudes. Research shows that children absorb most of their information based on what they see rather than what they hear.
According to the teachings of Abraham-Hicks, the leading edge of our current society’s knowledge and understanding of the law of attraction, children are born into this physical world “knowing” all there is to know from the non-physical state we all begin as. And if left to their own devices will naturally gravitate toward what is positive.
They go on to explain that the role of parents is to encourage, inspire, and allow children to follow their own journey…making their own choices; establishing their own preferences, and forming their own opinions. Parents are to only interfere to keep their children safe from real physical or emotional harm. My mother used to say in response to requests from her five children, “If it won’t hurt you, what’s the harm?” This applied to everything from my 4 yr old brother wanting to play in a mud puddle to my 15 yr old sister’s desire for bangs falling below her eyes!
And so my second response is, “allow them to be who they are”. Parents do not need to teach their children about the law of attraction. An understanding of these principles comes with them as they enter this physical world. Parents simply need to clearly define their role, model what they hope for in their children, and then assist them along their journey to discover, by way of their own experiences, what is pleasing and joyful to them. In other words, parents need to “empower” children to live as they are innately equipped to live.
When their main source of information is modeling what is essentially second nature to them, children will automatically and effortlessly live according to the principles of the law of attraction. When they are encouraged to experience what is interesting to them, they are then blessed with opportunities to create the life they were born to live.
The single most important thing parents can do for their children is to strive to become the best person they can be by working to uncover and release their limiting beliefs, ideas, and opinions that get passed on to their children without their awareness.
This is the basis of my work and has become my passion.
We are all born “knowing”…and in time, as we grow we take on the beliefs of the significant people in our lives and as we become more of a part of this physical world, we forget what we once knew.
So, the bottom line answer to parents wanting their children to be able to live their lives from a place of confidence, courage, and a positive mindset is to begin to work toward your own remembering…
To be the Best Parent, it is important to first be the Best You!

great post as usual!
I think that before you teach this to children you should be sure that you have it right yourself. I have seen way too many people who didn’t understand what they were doing. Books like The Law of Attraction Making it Work For You!, which I highly recommend can help to clear things up. The last thing you want to do is teach your kids to wish without action to back it up.
Thanks for clarity of parental role – Been wondering what to do for years!!

“Research shows that children absorb most of their information based on what they see rather than what they hear.” This Is a Most Powerful Statement!
…Yet to Me it’s merely Common Sense. Actions DO Speak Louder than Words, and Parents must Learn to take a Pro-Active approach to prepare for their Child’s Future. Where many rely on IQ, as in schooling, tutors, test scores… I was just tweeting today about Emotioal IQ. Trust me, It Will Get You Further Along in Life.
I Do Believe that Parents must become more aware of how they handle issues, resolutions, wants & desires… After all isn’t it Common Sense that Your Children are Watching You. They hear the whinning-The Economy, Taxes, Work, Lack of Work… but see a lack of follow-through & apathy or perhaps that the parent has given up on an issue, problem or a better solution.
I agree that those Parents that Show a Child; Perseverence in their thoughts, Integrity in their actions & Conviction in their words & even the Basic Laws of Attraction will be 100% the better for it.
For Example: I have a very dear friend that Desires Residual Income. She Teaches her twin Girls the same thoughts, I have No Doubts on the outcome of her kids!! She’s teaching them the Law of Attraction even though they are 9 years old!! LoL Truly! When Anyone Asks the Twins what they want when they grow up…they respond– “I will have Residual Income”. I believe Them.
Thoughts ARE Things! xoxo
Thanks for a Great Post!!
