It is my belief that kids need to learn to contribute to the smooth running of the home and it is through doing chores that they can get the opportunity to do this. It is only through doing chores that they will learn the skills required to be independent, and to becoming contributing members of a team and society.

Have you ever given your judgment much thought? Are you even aware of when you become judgmental? When I “woke up” and realized just how judgmental I was being of my son who has ADHD, it was a shock. However, I am just happy that I at least woke up to it and raised my awareness of it because it helped me build my relationship with my son in so many positive ways. In the episode, I share with you what I did and how I turned judgment around. Tune in…

There are few things more frustrating for parents than to watch their teen screw up or come to a decision that you know is going nowhere. But what do you do? What do you say? You can’t lecture them because you know it falls on deaf ears. And deep down you know you can’t really “control” them anymore. They are heading out to a party… how do you know they won’t smoke a joint on top of a few beers? Tune in…

Last week in part 1, Episode 352, I discussed some of the reasons I think it is that kids today just seem to push the limits more than ever. In episode 356, I discuss ways in which we can help our kids learn to live within limits and what learning this vital life skill will do for them in their lives. It is essential for us all to have to live within limits for there are limits all around us. These two episodes were inspired by Victoria Prooday, an OT who works with children, parents and teachers, and a blog post by Jacqueline from Deep Roots at Home. Thank you to both these authors for the work you do in the world to help children and parents thrive, not just survive. Tune in…
