Influence

Today...right now you could say tonight...I am writing to you guys about a topic I've never really touched on before. That topic is...Influences. What do I mean by influences? Good question. These days, the world is becoming a very dangerous please and we are not only being very protective over our kids but we are also on this really crazy scavenger hunt to look for ways to discipline/raise our children. We look at the world around us and our family/friends to get advice on how to raise OUR OWN kids. I have put "our own" in bold lettering because we forget about the fact that they are our kids and not our families kids or friends kids. Yes sometimes we might need advice and a little help along the way but we shouldn't completely copy what somebody else is doing. Each kid is different and I know this has been said a lot, but it really is true. What might work for someone else, might not work for you. We have to figure out our own way of parenting while also getting advice and help when we need it. What I'm trying to say is so many parents find that spanking a kid is a form of discipline that really works but it might not work for every single family. Also some people believe in positive discipline which again may not work for EVERY family. You have to decide (sometimes it's trial and error) whether it is a good fit for you or not, don't just assume it'll work because it seems to work for just about everyone else. I would like to mention an update we have coming for this week: It's called Parenting Observation | A Week Through A Parent's Eyes
I will be posting every day with a new post about ways that parents are raising their kids. It's my mission to find out the psychology behind why parents raise their kids the way they do and I'll be answering questions that you really want answered, and I'll get real parents answers and post them on this blog. This starts at 9:00 tomorrow so you have until then to get your questions into us so we can ask them and you can see your questions answered...and the clock is ticking right now!

In A Different Way

Many parents have their way of doing things...I propose we do things In A Different Way here are some ways parents DO their things The "Empowerment" Way 1. Because I can, because I said so The "Comparison" Way 2.  So and So would never do that! Why can't you be like (name here). The "Simple" Way   3. your grounded. I'm taking your phone! Go to your room! Tell your dad (tell your mom) These ways can work (they often do, ask any parent!) but we aren't here to do it the EASY way, we're here to teach our kids. The truth is...some kids don't learn from the Easy Way but most parents aren't willing to try any other way. They use excuses like "it worked for them...it works on my other kid(s). They just don't take the time. Then parents are left wondering "why do my kids never listen?" The problem is that kids aren't being taught. Sure, these methods work a lot but that doesn't guaranteed that every ki

Meaningful Moments

 "Love is enough" The quote that many have requoted for years. While some may say it is true, is it really? Is love really enough? What does that even mean? Well, some would say love is a feeling so if we're going based solely on that fact, then sorry to say but no it is not enough. See that is the problem, we base our relationship on how we are feeling. We base the ranking of our family on how we feel about each other and whether we fight or not. You may not be aware but ALL...let me say it again, ALL relationships have their ups and downs, every family fights once in a while. If you really base it solely on that, you'll be let down every time. "So what do we base it on?" you may ask; You base it on actions, its a conscience decision everyday to say "no matter what, I will stick around and fight for you, for US." That is what you signed up for when you said "I do" and many of us are standing at the altar with our children present while w
