Parents are responsible for providing a safe, peaceful and loving environment for their family to grow and thrive. Just as an employer establishes guidelines for their employees (and lays down consequences for poor performance), parents need to show clearly that they are in charge, and that a peaceful and happy environment results when every member is adhering to the family’s values and expectations.
It is a matter of
a) Knowing what your family values are
b) Agreeing to stand by them no matter what
c) Training your children to your expectations
d) Letting them practice - it is OK to make initial mistakes
e) Praising them for getting it right
f) Issuing agreed consequences for non-conformance
g) BEING CONSISTENT
