parenting tip I live by!
Your children should FEAR you, LOVE you, and RESPECT you. It will get you far and your relationship with your kids will strong and healthy. In fact this works with any child teaching full time this is my go to guide and as long as I instill these 3 emotions they will always come to me first. No wonder all the mommies look at me like deer in head lights, they're lucky if they can get the kiddos to nap and I've got them cleaning up after themselves, using their manners, and doing what they're told without repeating myself. Yes I had to toot my own horn for a moment I just love my job and how awesome I am at it!
Discipline is love. Though my oldest son never understands it.... Behavioral issues. I can only hope my parenting is judged by 2 of my 3. Lol.
There's a difference between being a bully and showing authority. Kids shouldn't fear that youre going to hurt them by no means but they should fear your authority and the consequences of their actions absolutely!
I have no doubts I am an amazing mother, my kids do use their manners, and are very respectful. My 16 mo old also says and signs please and thank you when he want something. My issue is my ex (their dad the 13 & 10 yr olds) feels it's ok to COMPLETELY demean me and my husbands strict nature and tells the boys they don't have to listen....hence my 13 yr old thinking he can argue with me. Another issue is how public schools CONVINCE our kids that if your parents are strict its child abuse! Now mind u I am not am overbearing parent but my children will respect me and others.
Nicole. Behavioral issues occur in some cases that aren't controlled by parents and it takes professional help. Don't feel bad about that
That's a problem I see a lot too. It can be tough to parent seperately especially when contradicting is going on. As long as your doing the right things at home you have the upper hand and the stronger relationship
