6. Don't make a problem

@th14pros90 Ай бұрын

You sure it won't make them rebel if the parents are not fit for purpose? If the parents can't lead by example it won't work.

Great advice! These policies are so true. The commenters who don’t like them are part of our current society which doesn’t believe in discipline or guidelines. Look where that has gotten us. Our country used to be full of much stronger people 100 years ago when kids were raised with discipline.

Yes, 💯 kids like it less when you don’t check what they’re up to. They think you don’t care… I experienced this in my childhood. I was youngest kid and my parents had problems. I think on some level my parents cared but I didn’t feel like they cared when I was young… Next to boundaries, I would say routines are highly important. It tells the kid they can count on you. It really doesn’t matter what the routine or tradition is (bedtime story, game night, Saturday grocery shopping, Taco Tuesday, whatever)-just as long as the routine is consistent. Thanks for the tips on what good parenting looks like. I want to be the best parent I can be ❤

Truth is so important. Even if my child grows up and chooses to believe something different than I have taught them, if I’ve taught them to think critically and to value and pursue truth, I have done my job. Our society today has put experience above truth, so that people literally think they can “own” their own truth like a pet. And that “truth” is entirely dictated by their feelings. That creates an incredibly unstable world. Always honor truth, even if you’re not sure what it is!

My wife and I are high school sweethearts and thank God we had the same beliefs in raising our children. One of the things we did was not adopt the counting to 3 deal. When you were told to do something you then needed to do it, immediately. First time obedience.

Hi Amen I am a mother of 3 kids ( a teenager, and 2 preschoolers) we live in IRAQ unfortunately, it means that a husband who is the father is more spoiled and a tool for destroying the family more than babies and how to raise them, cause he was raised in the wrong ways ... I was a translator and lived a beautiful life with English-speaking educated people, when I got married he treated me differently and said No to everything I asked or said... One of these is your videos and instructions, Please pray for me and for my kids especially a teenage boy who become a lived copy of his mean, ruthless, selfish, muscular father

@bls5160 It's harder In Iraq, a divorced mother is meant to be a servant in her parent's home without any hope of change ... The servants including my babies, And the eldest who is now 13 should live with his father under Iraqi law... I am surrounded by misery. But I won't stop praying for my husband to change and walk with me in the right direction, I got it from you(the Western community ) to raise my innocent kids correctly ..

@@furattaraf3001 I am so sorry that you are in such a terrible situation. I thought that you were from another country since you were an translator but I assumed wrong. Would your own parents treat you and your children like servants. I wonder if the nice couple that you once worked for would help you. Anyway I will pray that your husband comes to his senses and treats you as you should be treated and becomes grateful to you for the wonderful wife and mother that you are. Please God let him see the light and change his selfish ways. Good Luck to You.

He's ahead of the game just by having rules. Most families don't even consider it, and kids can feel lost without direction and purpose.

Listening to this, I thought of the instructions to parents in the book of Deuteronomy. Regarding the Ten Commandments, God (through Moses) instructed parents to ”Teach them to your children. Repeat them when you are at home and when you are away, when you are resting and when you are working.“ ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭6‬:‭7‬ ‭GNT‬‬

Treat others with respect does apply for ALL family members. Kids will respect us as much as we respect them. No shouting, name calling, hitting (or threatening of physical violence). And in my opinion this contradicts the idea of obeying blind and punishing kids for not doing so. Of course parents and adults have the responsibility but that doesn't mean that children's feelings, ideas, and needs don't have the SAME priority. Not more, not less. The same.

Great advice. Now, if a child doesn’t obey, which consequences do we ‘threaten’ them with, like in the example of putting away the trash? Especially when the are teenagers, it’s not easy. As you will have to execute the consequence if they don’t listen..
