parenting, answers the questions that worry you...keep you up at night...trouble your
heart and mind. This foundation helps you to use any parenting methods...successfully.
       
Issue # 1: Harmony at Home...

Hi -- I could tell you that this would improve your life...and that would be true, but really it
does more than that, so much more that it seems like hype...but it's not.

The Power of Respect changes the habits of parenting and makes it so much simpler for
everyone and much, much more enjoyable.

• Think of the most fun you have had with your children. Now you get to have as much of
that as you want.
• Think of the peaceful, quiet times. You get those too, as much as you want.
• Think of the serious, focused, learning, getting things done times. Those are yours too,
as much as you want...
Imagine your child smiling, laughing, moving joyfully through life...looking with wonder at
life's beauty and mystery, experiencing the thrill of discovery, the challenge of adventure,
fulfilling their gifts, living a life full of blessings.

This can be theirs and yours to share...

The # 1 Secret to Harmony at Home

#1 SECRET TO HARMONY AT HOME...TAKE ACTION & IT'S YOURS!

This strategy gives you a more positive relationship with your kids, a relationship where
everyone involved gets their needs met.

Here is what you do: You make respect your foundation ...that means: no matter what,
you are respectful to your kids.

How do you know if you are being respectful?

If your child likes what's happeining AND you like what's happening...that's all it takes.
This is the essence...

When I started being consistently respectful to kids, I got such positive reactions from
them that I continued this practice. First, problems between me and kids vanished, and
then problems did not develop.

I learned how to keep harmony, so that everyone gets their needs met. All of this came
from building a solid foundation of respect. Over the years, I've learned how deep and
persuasive respect is.

I know this is a simple concept, but it is amazingly powerful and effective. It cannot only
help you eliminate any struggles with your kids, it can help prevent them from developing
in the first place.

It helps solve individual differences in needs, wants, timing, likes and dislikes, values and
beliefs, in harmonious ways...so that each and every family member feels important and
valued and loved.

Stick with me and discover how to always speak respectfully to your kids and why it's so
important.

Understand the benefits, the value of trusting your kids and the harm of not trusting them.

Please, make respect your unshakable foundation. You'll love your results...so will your
kids. When respect is firmly established as your foundation...the problems you might
have with your kids - rudeness, disobedience, fighting, school problems, depression,
whining, tantrums, and so many more problems and troubles...simply vanish, as if they
were never there at all.

Keeping It Respectful--
dealing with common issues...respectfully

Q&A:  Until I have current questions from current readers, I answer questions that I've
been asked in the past that I believe have current relevance.

Bedtime

Q:  "My daughter never wants to go to bed at her bedtime. She always stalls, "Just one
more..." Do you have any suggestions to help get her to bed on time?"
C.H., Salmon Creek

A:  Ask her for help. Sometime when you are both in a good mood and don't have
anything stressful going on, tell her that you have a problem and that you need her help
to solve it. Since it is something that bothers you, it is your problem and not hers.

Tell her that you want, or need, her to go to bed at her bedtime without always having to
do one more thing, but that you don't want to force her to do something that she doesn't
want to do.

Explain the honest reasons that you want her to go to bed at the time that has been set
for her bed time. If you're not really clear on all the important reasons why that time has
been chosen, you might think this out before you have the meeting.

Make sure she has understood your reasons for wanting her in bed at a certain time. Ask
her if she has reasons for not wanting to go to bed at her bedtime. She may have
important reasons for her behavior.

The critical thing here is that you both understand clearly what the other person needs
and why. Take the time to clarify: "So you think..." "Do you understand what I mean
when...?"

Tell her that you would like her help to work out something about bedtime that you both
like. It could be anything, as long as you both like the idea.

Possible Respectful Solutions...
•  You might agree to a different time
•  She goes to her room, but goes to bed when she chooses
•  She agrees to the present situation
•  If she gets told an hour before bedtime to start getting ready
•  If she sets a timer, or an alarm clock for herself, leaving enough time to get ready
•  If she's totally responsible for getting herself to bed at the agreed upon time        

Power of Respect Question: What are some of your family issues? Can you think of
several possible win-win solutions?

Click Here to Ask: get your question answered in a future newsletter, you can also
suggest topics you would like covered

Next Week: Discover how a simple attitude adjustment...so easy that three year old
children have adopted it almost instantly...can help create harmony in your family...

May your efforts be successful and satisfying.

                Clear On What Respect Means To You...

Hi --  
When you respect someone:

· Respect forms your thoughts into cooperative understanding
· Respect comes through your mouth as kind, thoughtful words
· Respect comes from your hands as helpful, loving actions

When you truly respect someone, your respect even extends to your thoughts about that
person. You think of their pleasing qualities, words they have said that you admire,
actions they have taken that make you feel good, even proud of your connection. You
tend to overlook or accept weaknesses and mistakes.

When you are with that respected person you do your best to consider their feelings and
wishes in whatever actions you take or what you say.

You do your best to cooperate with them. If you know there is behavior that pleases that
person, you do your best to behave in this manner and to avoid behavior that they don't
like.

Respect can be developed by practicing cooperation and simple, common courtesy,
treating others in ways that feel good to them. We want them to have a pleasant life and
we wish to contribute to it. Cooperation and courtesy are important, practical aspects of
respectful relationships.

Words / phrases associated with respect:
· true and deep regard
· esteem
· admiration
· consideration
· courtesy
· politeness
· civility
· attentiveness
· to have a high opinion of
· to recognize the worth, quality, importance of

Now think of the children you already love...

May Your Efforts Be Successful and Satisfying!

                          5 Kids: From Fighting To Happy

While I was living in East Los Angeles, I was a caretaker for five young kids ranging in
age from one year to seven years old. The oldest went to school, but the other four were
too young and stayed home. They would wander or run aimlessly around the house,
doing things like dumping cereal out of the box onto the floor, tearing up papers, making
messes wherever they went. Sometimes they watched TV and they often got into fights
over this and that, especially the two older girls. They had a few toys, but weren't
interested in playing with them.

Before their brother left for school he would literally jump on one or more of the younger
children and body slam them onto the couch, leaving them crying. He repeated this when
he got home from school. I needed to learn about them, their interests and abilities. I'd
follow them cleaning up their messes. Doing my best to make sure that they didn't hurt
each other or themselves. I asked the older brother not to hurt his brother and sisters.
He didn't pay much attention. I gave as much attention to each one as I could. The baby
liked being held, so she was often on my hip as I went through the day.

I discovered that the oldest girl wanted to learn how to write and read. We did as much as
we could, but were often interrupted by the other older girl who was a live wire. She liked
it when we went out for walks, which we also did frequently.

After two weeks of caring for these kids while their mother worked, which amounted to
about 16 hours a day because of the distance she had to commute by bus, I was
beginning to get discouraged. I thought that I was facing defeat. I began to think that
even though being consistently respectful might work with kids who lived less deprived
lives, it didn't seem to be working with these kids.

Then one day, it seemed as if even the tiny, spotty, almost invisible amount of progress
we had made together vanished and we were back to square one. I was ironing a shirt
and I was feeling so frustrated and discouraged, thinking that the whole thing was
hopeless. Before it had been like rolling a heavy boulder up a mountain, progress was
hard and slow, but at least it was progress. Now it was like that boulder had just rolled to
the bottom again. I began to cry as I was ironing.

The oldest girl was the first to notice my tears. She became very concerned. She wanted
to know what was wrong, why was I crying. Soon all of the children wanted to know why I
was crying. I told them that I was sad because it seemed like they were getting along
better and now they were fighting just like when I first came and that I just didn't know
what to do.

What happened then took me by complete surprise! They came up and hugged me and
told me not to be sad. Then all the changes that had been happening inside them as
they internalized the new behavior they were exposed to burst to the surface! They
began being sweet to each other. Even the older brother would kiss and hug his little
brother and sisters before he left for school and when he came back home. Their
activities became focused and purposeful. They cleaned up the house and cleaned up
after themselves.

My faith was restored and raised to a new level. I realized that all I needed was faith. I
had perseverance and patience, but I was losing faith that I could be of help to these
kids. I was wrong.

May Your Efforts Be Successful and Satisfying!

Imagine Making Your Child Feel Good Every Time You Speak To Them

Hi,
                                 Speaking Respectfully

After you have begun making sure that your thoughts about your child are respectful
thoughts, it is time to make sure what you say to your child or about your child is
respectful.

Don't think that you have to master thinking respectfully before you begin to practice
speaking respectfully. Begin as soon as you can. You can always apologize if you speak
disrespectfully.

If you explain to your child that you are learning to say things that you like and they like,
but that sometimes you might forget, they can become more aware of their own learning
process.

The following is part of an outline from "Raise Happy Kids Intensive":

·  Speak Respect

o "I say respectful words about myself and my child"
o "I say respectful words to my child"
o It's important to know how to do this...and to do it
o Remember: There is always a respectful solution to any problem situation
§ Share this information with your child
o Speak to your child like you would speak to Your Respected Person
o Speak words of cooperation
o Apologize any time you are less than respectful
§ This helps heal the hurt you caused
§ It helps you remember to be respectful
§ If necessary, ask how you can help your child feel good again
o Refuse to say disrespectful words
o Catch yourself saying respectful things about yourself and your child
§ Celebrate when this happens
o Persevere...be persistent...never give up


May you be successful in raising your happy child!
