Extractions: Author of "Perfect Parenting" and "Kid Cooperation" Webster defines "respect" as "to show honor or esteem for. To treat with deference and regard." Implied in this definition is the fact that respect must be earned, and is given from the heart. Often I encounter parents who complain about their child's lack of respect for them, only to hear them turn around and screech at the same child, "Stop it! What is the matter with you? You're behaving like a wild animal!" Since children learn what they live, I have witnessed the reason this child shows the parent no respect. So, how can we raise respectful children? Step #1 "Do as I say, not as I do" sounds like a fun idea, but as a parenting tool it rarely (if ever) works. You are your child's first and most important teacher. Just as children learn to talk by listening to us talk, they learn how to treat others by following our lead. Watch how you treat, not only your kids, but other people you come in contact with during your day. What are you teaching your kids? Teach more than just manners. "Thank you, Mrs. Pantley." can be said as a polite compliment, or can be said with sarcasm and attitude fit for a back alley. When we teach our children manners we must also discuss the not-so-obvious details. Such as looking someone in the eye, using a polite tone of voice, and using real words (such as "yes" instead of "uh huh!") These are not things our kids are born knowing. We need to teach these important facets of good manners.

When Little Kids Curse - Parenting Tips For Bad Language Main parenting tips When Little Kids Curse. How could I teach a toddlerwho was just learning to talk that some words are better left unsaid? http://www.keepkidshealthy.com/parenting_tips/cursing.html
Extractions: http://www.clubmom.com Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me. Unless they come from the mouths of babesÑmy babes, that is. I'll never forget when my son, Patrick, then a darling two-year-old with angelic curls and adorable blue eyes, began saying, "Damn it, Mommy!" with both feeling and enunciation. How could I teach a toddler who was just learning to talk that some words are better left unsaid? Preschoolers have an uncanny ability to pick up wordsÑall wordsÑthat they hear. In my case, I must admit, Patrick probably heard it from his parents. And what kids pick up on TV, on the playground, in the store, or at child care is bound to stick. Eventually, your angel is going to utter something downright demonic, no matter how much you try to shield him.

Extractions: Newsletter Archives Teaching Children Financial Responsibility By Elvia C. As parents, one of our goals is teaching our children the skills needed to have a successful future. As soon as the child learns basic math at school, you can incorporate money in their learning. For instance you can teach the value of the coins by counting them at home. Use going to the grocery store as a practice tool, comparing prices, counting the money when you pay is a good way to start. Teach your child about savings. Set up a piggy bank and encourage the child to put his money in. Practice saving money for a toy or something he wants. All children who accumulate more than $50.00 are required to open a savings account (CCL regulations). Giving an allowance will teach the child to handle resources and will allow them to make responsible decisions. You may want to give the child some money as a reward for doing extra chores around the house.
Extractions: By Elvia C. In light of the shootings in Granada Hills, now is the time to reflect and take a hard look at what is happening in our society. How can we make a change to assure a safe and better future for our children? We as adults can take action by, first examining ourselves. How do we deal with daily aggravations? Do we yell and make hand gestures on the freeway? Do we roll our eyes and sigh impatiently at check out lines? The way we handle ourselves during a crisis or an argument with another person teaches our children that conflict and disagreement is part of our daily life. We as adults can take a moment or two to think which is the best way to react to conflict and disagreement handling these constructively models appropriate behavior. For instance take a walk if possible. Wait a moment alone and count to ten (time out.) Take deep breaths. Be respectful. Respect your child. Value him or her and their opinions. No name-calling, no put downs or hostile arguments with the child or your mate.

Extractions: All parents deserve support in the important job of keeping children safe. Begin to teach your children basic safety skills as early as possible, in the same way that you would teach them traffic safety rules. We hope these tips are helpful, but they are only a first step. To make sure children remember and use safety skills, it is important that safety material is part of their school curriculum. 1. Be calm and reassuring. Just as children don't learn to ride a bicycle by talking about it, they don't learn prevention skills without opportunities to practice. Children learn by doing. They need to role-play and see how it feels to say NO in difficult situations. Play the "What If" game and help the child think of several responses to a given situation such as "What if the babysitter " or "What if the school bus didn't arrive on time " Choose real life situations like confronting a stranger while walking to school, getting separated in a crowded store, or playing in the front yard.

Extractions: Parenting Tip #7: Tips on Talking Back Tip 1 Parent, Take Care of Yourself Tip 2 Discipline versus. Punishment Children need discipline, but they don't need punishment. Whats the difference? Sometimes we use the words interchangeably, but it helps to see the difference. Discipline helps teach children what to do, while punishment focuses on what the child has done wrong. Examples: Discipline: I see youve left your bike out in the street again. If you will put it in the garage now, you can use it in two days. If I have to put it away it will be a week before you can use it. Make sure that you follow through with what you say. If discipline is respectful, related to the incident, and reasonable, the child will actually learn a lesson and change behavior. Is it respectful to hold someone accountable for his or her behavior? You bet! Punishment: You are such a lazy kid, leaving your bike out in the street. Havent I said a million times that Im going to give your bike away if I see it in the street. Well, this is the last straw. That bike is going to Goodwill tomorrow. Instead of learning to put the bike away, chances are the child will be too busy being mad at the parent, and wondering what his or her problem is. And, by tomorrow, giving the bike away may not be what you want to do, because you dont want to hear the whining and pleading for another one.

Extractions: There are two matters you may want to consider in your decision. What lessons do you want to teach your child about spending money? For example, if it is important for you to teach your child that they have to work for things that are considered luxuries (such as expensive clothing) then you may want them to pay part or all of the clothing cost. If they have to spend their allowance money or do extra chores for the clothing, they may learn to appreciate the clothes more. This issue really provides you with an ideal teaching opportunity around work ethic, values, and money. How do you feel about the type of clothing they want to buy? There are many different clothing styles on the market today, and you need to investigate the type of clothing to see if you feel the style is appropriate for your child's age and body type. Go to the store with your child, and use those moments in the store to explain your values and views. Your child needs to know that just because the style may be popular, it may not be appropriate for them because it is too tight or too revealing. Once again, you have an opportunity to teach your child about clothing and what images they are portraying by what they wear.

Extractions: August About the Internet The Internet can be lots of fun for you and your family. There is lots to see and lots to learn. Unfortunately, sometimes some individuals try to contact children and young children with the intent to be hurtful. Fortunately, you can stay safe and smart on the Internet by following a few simple rules: ALWAYS tell your parents or another adult immediately if something is confusing or seems scary or threatening. DON'T give out your full name, real address, telephone number, school name or location, schedule, password, or other identifying information when you are online. Check with an adult before making exceptions. NEVER have a face-to-fac~e meeting with someone you have met online. If your parents make an exception to this rule, make certain your parent or another adult is with you when you meet your cyberpal. NEVER respond online to any messages that use bad or scary words, are threatening or just make you feel weird. If you get a message like this, tell an adult. NEVER go into a new online area that is going to cost additional money without first asking permission from your parents or your teacher.
Extractions: PARENTING TIPS Parenting requires countless sacrifices and continuous hard work, but the rewards are plenty. To be successful parents, Dr. Sal offers these tips: Welcome change in yourself and your children. See change as positive. Seek self-improvement. Possess good judgment. Know the difference between mischief and misconduct. Have a sense of humor about raising children. Believe that discipline is a teaching process. It is not simply punishment. Discipline is everything you do to teach children to be responsible and think for themselves. Focus on the positive attitudes and behavior in their children. Call attention to positive qualities. Use self-esteem as motivation. "You made a good choice. You should be proud of yourself!" Behave yourself . Provide good example by being responsible, not perfect. Behave consistently. Say what you mean and mean what you say. Follow through. Do not give in to misbehavior demands. Behave proactively. Anticipate problems and plan to avoid them. Use punishments that teach better decision-making.
