I was wondering these days about why some kids’ behaviors are always better than mine, like their parents asked them stop watching TV, they will listen to it and turn off the TV immediately. My friends told me about the way she educated her kids. When you are serious about something, you must mean to do it. For instant, if your kids don’t want to sit in the car seat, then you won’t drive the car until they do it. Don’t just say it, but do it. Let the kids know the consequences. I guess I will try it next time.
