The Yelling Habit has been on the increase since the pandemic and we are not sharing this as a blaming tool. It is more so that we see the effects of this unintentional habit that parents picked up along life's journey. In this Episode, I share 6 reasons why it is urgently necessary that we stop this habit. To know HOW to stop it, I will share the link to my online course called Shout Less to Connect More. It is a great resource where I show you practical steps to stop the yelling and enjoy the parenting relationships that you deserve. www.bit.ly/ptsonlinecourses.

In this Episode, I talk about how we can help build the great memories with our teens to make up the LEGACY we leave for them. This is very important yet very easily missed out on. I have seen many parents of adults today who regret not paying attention to these small but vital daily choices that would have made a big difference to the relationship they now have with their adult children. I would do myself a disservice if I don't continuously talk about these to today's parents of teens as I am on a mission to make sure we don't make the same mistakes. When we know better as parents, we do better. Please let us know how you found this Episode. Do get in touch via social media. Let's know your thoughts. Thanks all. 😉

Many teens complain that their parents don't listen to them and parents are shocked because they think that they do listen. I call this the Parent- Teen Listening Gap and here is my proven way of closing that gap.

In this Episode, I share 5 ways we can help our Teenagers in this lockdown season and in the next segment, I share a word if encouragement directly to your teens. (So you can have them listen to that part) It will help them look at this lockdown with a different perspective.

Many parents struggle with understanding their teens and are shocked by the behaviour change they see in them. What happened to their teens? Some ask where is my little son or daughter? I tell parents that thet are still here. They have evolved so we need to evolve in our parenting ways to meet with them. In the episode, I share 4 reasons why some of us struggle to understand them and how we can mitigate that struggle. We have our parenting programme coming up frim the 24th to the 26th of January. It is more than a parenting class, it is an experience where parents will learn how to evolve in their parenting ways and see themselves differently and end up being treated differently - more respectful responses and wider listening ears all around you. The programme is called RESTART...you get a chance to press that reset button. Registration details www.bit.ly/restartparenting (usd) www.bit.ly/restartGBP ( usd) . Or access the details on our Instagram page's BIO. I am looking forward to seeing you there. 😉

The pandemic was a shock to all of us and many areas of our lives including I must add, our parenting took a hit. All of a sudden, we had to juggle our children's schooling and our workplace duties. Our teenagers couldn't believe the sudden changes they had to adapt to but we scaled through it all and here we are. As we step on 2021, I share here 7 great principles that will help grow our parenting relationship. This is vital because it covers mental health, communication and emotional wellbeing which are the pillars needed for parenting in today's world.

A healthy self esteem in our teens is vital. It helps them with their choices. It also helps them with their self confidence and their ability to say NO to negative peer pressures. In this episode, I share tips on how we can help our teens build up their self esteem for 2021 and beyond. Please share this episode with others. It is so vital that many of us get these tips and apply them in the relationships with their teens.

Sometimes as parents, we do get caught up in the role of parenting that we forget ourselves in the process.

Don't get lost in the role of parenting, rather allow the role to compliment YOU.

Correcting our teenagers can sometimes be tricky because of the not so positive reactions we might get from it. Is correcting are teens wrong? No it isn't. It is vital and valid to correct them BUT how we make those corrections matters if we truly want transformation. I share the more about this here. I also share more information about our upcoming webinar 'How to Correct to Transform Teenagers ' on the 12th of December 2020. Register at www.bit.ly/correct2transform.
