How peaceful our homes are hinges on how effectively we discipline our children.  There are a lot of things you can do as a mom to improve the way you discipline and help your children to respond better.  But it starts with you and it takes a lot of effort.

Listener Questions:

Melissa – How do you effectively discipline your children in public? My boys made a huge scene in the grocery store today and I got loads of looks from other shoppers.

Debbie – what tips do you have when a kid who once was compliant, now fights the simplest things like brushing teeth, let alone getting school work done.

Danielle – How to handle whining when talking to the child about why they shouldn’t do whatever it is they’ve done.

Elizabeth – How to make a child who squeels/screams whether she is hurt or not and doesn’t even realize that she is doing it, how do you make her stop?

Patricia – What is the best approach when you are having a conversation with another adult and the child insists on interrupting?

Thanks for listening!  Tune in next week when I talk about how to give each child one on one attention.
