Parenting Secrets - Good Life Skills For Kids 5-12 Download

I’ll reveal it in just a few moments. But I’ll tell you this… growing up is hard to do and children want you to learn this secret because it makes growing up much easier for them.


Just as you want to be a successful mom or dad, your children want to be successful too. Successful at being a kid, successful at growing up. They really do. But what do they know? After all, they’re the new kids on the block to this adventure called life.


"What is life all about and what do I need to know to navigate it successfully?"


Problem is, they don’t have the answers, and nobody is telling them, and they don’t know what questions to ask. What if you had just started a new job and found yourself in that predicament? So you ask, "What am I supposed to do?" and everyone shrugs, "Just walk around, you’ll figure it out…"


What would you do? Guess? Take a few stabs in the dark? Why not? Well, children do the same thing, they guess and start doing what comes "naturally." In other words, whatever they feel like doing. After all, if it comes natural, and feels good, it’s gotta be okay. Right?


Childish reasoning, but if it becomes their internal guideline it simply leads to a lot of bad behavior and the "my way is better than your way" attitude, and unfortunately, a lot of yelling and scolding.


Teaching them the overriding principles of life that we all live by, and the matching life skills that make it work, sheds light and understanding on their path, helps them make sense out of the world, which in turn helps them develop their personality, attitude and behavior more than any amount of yelling, scolding, pushing and prodding could ever do.


And it’s easier than you think, because once you learn the Secret a lot of the usual "normal" parenting problems will simply fade away.


"Your method is the only one that worked in getting my 2-1/2 yr. old to stop racing around the house, and I tried everything!" — Joseph M, Colorado (2-1/2 yr old son)


It’s not supposed to be a secret, so why is it? Just that somewhere in our world of high technology, higher learning and advanced science, it got lost in the shuffle.


So, I sat down and wrote the book I wish I had when I was a young mother because if I’d known then what I know now . . . how much easier it would have been for me. Now I want to pass it on to you, to shorten your learning curve. So please take a moment to get the information below.


If I can help you to avoid some of the stumbling blocks and pitfalls it will not only help you, but also your children who will be able to grow up with the kind of coaching and mentoring they need from you in order to blossom to their fullest potential.


It was only after my children had grown and gone that in looking back I could clearly see the twists and turns, the difficulties and the obstacles that children experience in the process of growing up. It also became clear what it was that they really, really needed to navigate through those years without crashing.


So I began writing these thoughts down, not intending to write a book, however, having once put pen to paper I just kept writing.


Surprised? So much emphasis is placed on educating the intellect – the BRAIN – that the heart is simply overlooked.


The brain gives one knowledge, but the heart gives it … Direction … and enriches life in a way that logic alone cannot. And it’s in the heart where character is forged.


In the end it’s not GENIUS (the brain) but WISDOM (the heart) that wins out and makes life fulfilling


Educating the heart is done by teaching Life’s Lessons – the overriding principles that govern our lives – and the matching Life Skills that make it work, and the "reasons why" they have to learn it.


"My husband had been talking to me about teaching our son the "life skills" that he was going to need to survive and make it in the world, but I had NO IDEA what he was talking about, and he had NO IDEA how to teach or even explain to me what he was talking about. But now I know. "Thank you so much for your work, it indeed has made life much easier in raising our 7 year old." -Melanie


Once a week I taught these Life Skills lessons to a second grade class of 7 and 8 year old kids. I did this as a volunteer teacher for a period of six years. The teacher was delighted with the improvement in class behavior and attitudes of the children brought about by these weekly lessons.


Troublemakers quickly improved their behavior as the lessons sank in, and they, too, became nice little kids. Other teachers noticed the difference in the children and asked if I would do the same in their classrooms.


The kids loved these lessons and looked forward to my coming to their class every week. Once it happened that recess immediately followed my class time, and I ran overtime and the recess bell rang. I remarked, "Oops, it’s time for me to stop!" The children reacted spontaneously, "No, no, don’t stop!" They wanted me to finish what I was talking about.


Were Life’s Lessons desired more than recess? Yes! Pretty amazing, isn’t it?


Let me be quick to say that I don’t put on a "show" to keep them entertained. I’m just an ordinary person (I think I’m even somewhat boring), I just go in and talk to them about these life lessons … and the subject matter itself engrosses them. The class is interactive, I draw them out, get their opinions, their questions (they ask very thoughtful ones), and they get to learn about life and…
