Meet the Family: Married mom of 4 boys.
One Major Goal you’re striving for: Ending the “Entitlement Attitude!”
Biggest Pet Peeve: Hearing someone say, “No offense, but…”
Most Controversial thing about you: We make our kids do chores that other parents think are outrageous. Like what, you ask? Our seven year old does the laundry, for the whole family, sorting to folding, every Sunday. For more shocking examples, check here: http://AskDoctorG.com/free-resources/
Best advice you’ve ever received: “The important rules of parenting are these three: Love, limit, and let them be.”
What are you reading? What is your favorite book? Great parenting books:
“Blessing of a Skinned Knee”
“Building Resilience in Children and Teens”
What do you do when you have some alone time away from the kids? read romance novels!
