These are words to live by, I am sure you would agree. We probably wish our kids were on board with us about the above phrase. It just seems natural to be rebellious. Only with the passage of time do our children realize how grateful they are to have had you for a parent. Well, maybe not that far, but certainly much more than they were when they were kids.
How can we get them from recalcitrant to resilient in a manner that works for all parties? It has been a challenge for parents since the dawn of time. How often have we heard, “my generation had more respect for their elders than this one”? Upon reflection, we know that is not necessarily true, but proper relationships will help mold each family.
Professional advice and councel is not admitting defeat, it is asking for assistance in a very important and weighty family matter. Start the New Year off right by contacting Metropolitan area child behaviorist Doctor Steven Sussman. Dr. Sussman will talk to your kid about gratitude vs. attitude at his Mountainside, NJ office. Call him for an appointment at (908) 217-8106.
