5 tips for Positive Parenting!
I have shared this before but once again I would like to acknowledge the work of Glenn Gerreyn the founder of the above institute. These images come from his webpage below.
Identify your child’s strengths and work on fostering and developing them.
Be present in the moment with your children, actively listening and communicating with them.
Share with your children the times you have failed. Allow children to learn strategies to be resilient.
It is okay not be perfect. It is okay not to win. Teach them to be gracious in defeat.
Home should be a happy place. You want your children to feel safe and loved. Tell them you love them. Tell them you are proud of them and tell them why.
