24.01.2022 When your child is pushing all your buttons, take a deep breath and look them in the eyes. Ask yourself, what are they going through? Why arent they listening?... What is happening inside this little human (that you love!) and how can you help them? Just turning your focus onto helping your child can help you to calm down and stop yelling. And heres a bonus tip: unless there is a genuine physical impairment, your kids are not deaf. Speak softly. Theyll listen harder. A gentle tone and a soft voice are nicer to listen to. Life can get difficult. If you find that youve slipped up and yelled, forgive yourself, hug your little one and start again. And remember that that good parents arent perfect good parents are just trying their best.

19.01.2022 One day recently my three-year-old asked me to tickle him. I knew that tickling could be one of those activities that could move quickly from fun into boundary ...transgression, and kids often nervously laugh and tolerate touch theyre not sure they want. I wanted to connect with him playfully in the way he was asking, and I wanted to model safe physical experiences for him at the same time. If you start to feel like you dont like it, you can tell me to stop, I said. Stop, he said, testing it. I stopped. Go, he said, laughing. I tickled again. Stop. Go. We practiced for a few rounds, with him seamlessly taking the lead with guiding the touch. And if I ever tickle you somewhere that doesnt feel good, you can say, I dont like that. I dont like that, he practiced. But were not just teaching our kids about the kind of touch to avoid. We also want them to enjoy living in their bodies and to not attach shame to touch that makes them feel good. If theres somewhere you want me to tickle you, you can ask me. Like, Will you tickle my feet? Then I get to decide if thats something I want to do. Will you tickle my feet? he asked me. Hmm...Yes, I will. Thats something I would like to do. And just like that we practiced boundaries, consent, and normalized pleasure. Its not one serious, awkward conversation. Its not The Sex Talk youve known and dreaded. Its a foundation built over years through affection, conversation, and modeling. Tenderly, playfully, with curiosity and openness. Its not solely teaching about sex either; its about conveying that we are embodied beings based in sensory experiences, and there are many ways to relish living in a body rich with sensation. #teachconsent #consentculture #creatingconsentculture #sexpositivefamilies #bodyboundaries #mybodymyrules #growingupknowing #unsilencedbody #unsilencedwoman

06.01.2022 A beautiful, simple message, a difficult but surmountable and necessary task. And the Gordon Model skills can help us get there. Active Listening, I-Messages f...oster respectful discussions which can lead to understanding, acceptance and yes, love. #gordonmodel #activelistening #imessages #values #conversation #respect #understanding #change #love #acceptance #empathy #parenting #homelife #parents (Graphic and message by #ohhappydani)

06.01.2022 What does it mean when we talk about kids respecting us? Theres so much talk around kids need to learn respect, but that just isnt true! You dont learn res...pect. You dont teach respect. Respect is something that we, as parents - and caregivers, earn. Respect develops naturally when kids are inspired by adults. When adults act with empathy and compassion. If you think of the people that you respect in your life, they are those who inspire, connect, achieve and act with kindness, humility and good humour. Respect is absolutely, categorically never achieved through shaming, punishment, exclusion or guilt. The only thing that develops here is disconnect and fear. . If you want your kids to respect you more, the solution is very simple.....you have to start by respecting them first.

05.01.2022 Hes the kid who never listens the first time. Or the second. Or even the tenth.... You can pick him up out of the line up in the school hallways. Hes the one who doesnt walk in an orderly fashion. He runs or spins or stops in his tracks if something catches his eye. He has a hard time keeping his hands to himself. His handwriting and spelling dont betray his intelligence...you might be fooled into thinking its all a struggle if youre not paying attention. Hes the one making all the noises with his mouth, only stopping when his siblings finally yell at him. His heart sometimes breaks a little because hes not always sure why what hes doing is so wrong. His ideas come out in a jumble and you have to slow way down and look in his eyes to listen. His ideas are just too big and too fast for his head it seems and so they come out in any old order. But he needs you to hear him. His energy cannot be contained by walls and he seems to take up so much more space than his size. He tries every ounce of your patience if youre trying to get somewhere. You might send him to put on his boots and hell come back with a new LEGO creation. Time has no meaning when a new plan strikes. He can understand stories on a level well beyond his years and will floor you with his insights. He is smart as a whip yet school isnt always his jam. Hed rather talk about why Sally is giving away 24 of her apples instead of solving the story problems in math. He loves fiercely and deeply and without reservation. He will tuck a blanket around you if you look cold and will always share a bite of his cookie. He can read your emotions on your face and will always know who is lonely on the playground. He runs to open your car door and will insist on carrying your bag in the house for you. He loves to climb into your lap and wants to hold your hand as he falls asleep. His greatest joy is making you laugh from deep in your belly. His body is eight but his soul is much older. He is so many things...sometimes the world wants to label him with letters and words and numbers...and sometimes these help us understand him better. But the letters and words and scores are not what he is. They cannot capture his essence. There is no data taken anywhere on big hearts, but if there were this kid would be the shining star. Like all our kids he is just himself. The sum of gifts and struggles all bound together with love. And my hope for him, and all kids really, is that we can see these clearly. We can look beyond the definitions and categories to whats shining in their eyes and hiding behind their smiles. And we can love them just the way they are. Amy ( by Amy Betters-Midtvedt)

03.01.2022 How do you fix it? Make your own rules about what success looks like and your own scoring system. Also, put all the important things on your to-do list every day: cuddle my babies, drink my tea while its still hot, have a shower, kiss my spouse...
