Parents' Comments

Parenting is the most important job you will ever do.

It can also be the most difficult!

"To be a man, a boy must see a man." (J.R. Moehringer)

"The thing that impresses me most about North America is the way parents obey their children" (King Edward VII , 1841-1910)

When a child is disregulated - is the time parents need to be regulated.

Criticism is not a motivator.

Many clinicians find it easier to tell parents their child has a brain-based disorder than suggest parenting changes. Jennifer Harris (psychiatrist)

Parents are the external regulator for kids who cannot regulate themselves.

Whining and crying are employed by kids for the purpose of getting something. If it works, then it was worth the effort and will be repeated.

Wouldn't it be nice if children would simply listen and learn.

"Rules without relationship leads to rebellion" (Josh McDowell)

Don't wait for him to turn 10 before you reveal that you are not in fact the hired help whose job it is to clean up after him.
