  • Understanding Your Child's Attachment To Personal Possessions
    We often say ‘wealth and possessions are not important’ – true, but personal possessions are important to kids. Young children especially can become attached to their personal possessions. It may not seem important to adults, but small, simple and seemingly insignificant objects can have much significance in the lives of young children.
  • Perseverance The Key To Discipline
    Many parents suffer the problem which they commonly describe as “he just won’t do as I say”. It is often the case that children will not adhere to our request, need to be reminded time and time again or will not learn, whatever we say or do. When this happens, more often than not, we look predominantly at our child’s behaviour – his stubbornness, laziness, or however it is manifesting. But, even though we think we have done and said all we can, it is often our own (parents’) behaviour we fail to really, objectively, look at.
  • Raising Kids To Have Personal Power
    Parents, being the role models, are in the best position to empower their kids to have the skills for success. It’s often the simple, everyday communication in our relationships that can make such a difference to encouraging our kids to be confident, courageous and happy.
  • Family The Most Important Thing In Life
    Prince Andrew was reported as saying “I believe fundamentally that the family is the most important thing in life”. And this belief probably holds true for most people, but like the diet we have every intention on going on, or the cigarettes we have every intention on giving up, we just don’t get around to it, often until it’s too late. So, given that we are so caught up in work, DIY, housework, and life, how do we make time for the family?
  • Seven Steps To Loving Your Kids Again
    We know it's not possible to be a perfect parent. That is an impossible task. All children are different, all children are unique, have totally different motivations, personalities, likes and hates, loves and fears. What works for one parent may not necessarily work for you, so it can be hard when confronted with a difficult situation. More often than not our children can drive us to despair, so what do you do when you're at the end of your tether?
  • Raising Kids Who Are Popular With Their Peers
    Contrary to popular belief spread by our consumer world, it is possible for parents to raise their kids to be confident, independent individuals, who are popular with their peers, without having to buy them expensive fashionable toys and clothes.
