Thank you for these great suggestions Selena. I’ve been working on not saying no all the time to my kids. I totally agree with you that spending one on one time every day with each child is so important. I find that is the most important part of my day since I am a work from home mom. The juggle can be so hard some days, especially since my husband works such long hours that sometimes during the week I feel like a single mother.

That book looks great and I am sure I will be able to get a lot from it, thanks for the suggestion!

I totally agree. We need to keep our word with our kids. If we say we’ll play with them at 10:00, then we need to follow through on that. Otherwise, we’re teaching them that they’re unimportant to us and that we’re ultimately untrustworthy. I’ve had to make some serious changes in that area, but I can already see improvement – in them and me.

Thanks for visiting! 🙂

It’s wonderful that you refuse to shout in your family. That’s an excellent example for your kids to follow. And mindful parenting really does make all the difference. When we have a clear intention about our actions, we make better decisions.

In reply to Meredith. I know, right? And the bedtime tip is sooo simple! Just give them a short period of undivided attention and they're generally happy as clams afterward. Thanks for visiting!

In reply to Mama Of Many Blessings.

That’s so true. When we berate our kids, we make them feel that they’re “bad” or “unlovable”, which is a real shame. We should be trying to motivate them to improve, not guilt them into doing what we want. In fact, that’s pretty much the definition of bullying.

So glad to hear that positive discipline is working for you! 🙂

In reply to 'Becca. I completely agree about using quiet voices. If I'm shouting, naturally my kids are going to shout in return. I can't fault them for that. We definitely have to model the behavior we want them to show. Thanks for visiting!
