Consequences / Anna-Marie #PWP Talk Show

Consequences / Anna-Marie #PWP Talk Show

Do you struggle with staying consistent with your consequences?

Do you have a partner that is making it hard for you to do so?

Watch as Anna Marie explains the struggles she and her hubby, and family goes through when they are not in agreement.  Struggling to keep it real, keep consequences relevant and yet not so hard as to be a pain to ensure they are followed through on. Trying to ensure both parents are on the same page.  Is that even possible? If not, how do you handle that?

What kind of consequences do you think are good ones.
Pick from this list and tell us what you usually use and why.

  1. Time outs (with a stool or in bedrooms)
  2. Taking something of value away from them, like computer time, television time
  3. Not allowing them out of the house, or what we call ‘grounding’ them.
  4. Giving extra chores up and above their regular chores
  5. Spankings, or tapping on the hands for little children
  6. Making them go to their rooms and wait until the other parent gets home to dole out a different punishment
  7. Making them write outlines and or phrases
  8. Asking the teachers for extra homework
  9. Taking away allowances (if they get one if not taking away gift money)
  10. If they have done something against another child, make them apologize and or make them do that child’s chores

Do you think about the consequences you give out? Do you think how they will affect that child, and or the other children in the house?

Tell us what you are dealing with below in the comments and how you are doling out consequences and why you are picking what you are?

Higher Education for our children

Higher Education for our children

If higher education is what is important for you as a parent, then please watch this video.

There are many things we will try to accomplish for our children.  And we will go to great lengths to try and do anything we can for them. One of the things we tend to think is extremely important is schooling.  Many children will do well in school and will the option for scholarships. Many will not. What do you do if you want your child to have a better, higher education but they didn’t get a scholarship and you can’t afford their school? Or do you think you should sacrifice everything in order for them to get that education?

What do we do:

  • if your child doesn’t want a higher education?
  • Or is just not able to do the work in order to obtain that education?

At what point do we sit back and let them make these choices or do we force our way on them. We are the parent and therefore we know what is best for them, correct?

What are your thoughts on all of this?

Do you have a way to make your child study that we have not thought of?

Please comment and let us know your thoughts.

Don’t ever judge someone’s education level by appearances because many high achievers don’t even have a grade 12 education. Nor judge a parent because their child doesn’t get to college or university.  On the other hand, do not judge parents who have children that are very smart and or are willing to do the hard work to get into a higher education institution.  Neither parent deserves your judgment.  We are all just doing the best we can with what we have and with what our children are capable of.

Why you need to be a Bad Parent?

Made a terrible mistake with my 2 children the other day…
