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

You cannot reason with someone who is being unreasonable.

If it  was going to be easy to raise kids, it never would have started with something called "labour".

Relationships matter:  change comes through forming trusting relationships. People, not programs change people.

Children fare better when expectations on them are clear and firm.

"Cutting" is a visible sign to the world that you are hurting.

Hurt people hurt people.

Criticism is not a motivator.
