Quinceañera, Sweet Sixteen, Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah, Débutante Ball Ceremonies and Celebrations in Las Vegas just like any other cities have three phases as rites of passage stages: Separation, Transition, and re-Incorporation. In the first phase, Young people withdraw from their current status and prepare to move from one place or status to another and I don't mean with a limo or party bus I mean spiritually. There is often a detachment or cutting away from the former self in this phase, which is signified in symbolic actions and rituals. For example, the cutting of the hair for a person who has just joined the army. He or she is 'cutting away' the former self - the civilian. The second phase, transition phase is the period between states, during which one has left one place or state but hasn't yet entered or joined the next; the person adjust to the new status.

When your kids don't get it they become fearful, angry, upset and uncomfortable in their own skin. And often even they don't understand why. No, we are not talking about all kinds of material things like bicycles, dolls or video games. Children want real limits. At times, they beg for them and we don't even know it. They need limits to know how to navigate their sometimes confusing world. In the back of their mind, they expect you to stop them, when they are about to trespass or cross over a line. Parents must step up to the plate when their kids start to test them. They often, subconsciously, want you to tell them what is required, rather than just let them totally do their own thing. Consciously, children don't recognize this either, so if a parent just listens only to what a kid appears to be saying, he or she is going to miss the real message. Children want a map. They want to know the lay of the land. They want to know where the Stop, Stay Out and Dangerous Dog signs are? Since they don't consciously understand this, how do they ask? By continually pushing the envelope...more
