How do family patterns sabotage its members? You are invited to find out.

When stressed, it doesn't take much for our child to 'push our buttons.' Do you know how to step OUT of this pattern?

Once our buttons get pushed, we are astonished to hear ourselves sound exactly as our parents did when they were enraged or felt threatened. In moments of high stress and conflict, we duplicate the very patterns of behavior that we swore we would never do; and then guilt sets in after the crisis has been managed. Guilt is a sure pathway to overcompensating for negative behavior, especially from parents to their child. Come learn how to side step this pattern.

Children quickly learn the reality of your reaction when your button is pushed and he or she becomes even more of an expert button pusher from that time forward. There is a strategy to go around this behavior. You are invited to learn it here.

What is easy to forget, is that all problems come into our lives to teach us something and to make us emotionally more resilient and spiritually stronger. All issues and challenges serve a higher purpose. If you are curious about your purpose and how to be the best you can be in a relationship, please contact us.

Social Skills: Have you taught your child HOW to listen?

One of the best ways to raise children who are good listeners is to model good listening skills yourself and practice constantly at home. Live a life of good communication between you and other family members. When two parents are really listening to each other as a way of life, it will show children the value and importance of paying attention to the spoken word. With younger children, "listening games" develop skills. With older children, especially those with ADHD or LD, it takes practice.

One benefit of being a good listener is that the listener avoids jumping to conclusions or coming to erroneous ones. You can start your child off at an early age to avoid this kind of communication pitfall. Sometimes not listening and not paying close attention to other people can result in hearing only a portion of what the people are actually saying, and in the classroom this can trigger problems with learning or doing homework.

This can lead to irritating conflicts that could have been avoided had the person listened more closely to instructions, directions, or assignment details. By getting your young children to become better listeners, these kinds of situations will be minimal as they become adults, and will enhance their interpersonal social skills.

Sometimes individuals with impulsivity-based behaviors may need to practice not interrupting - a lot. Interrupting is not always intentional. It can be related to a discrepancy in the gap between the speaker's pacing and the listener's expectation that the speaker has completed a thought. This takes practice. Try having your child silently count to 4 if they are in doubt about someone having finished speaking. When they detect the silence, they may respond.

Good listening habits can be cultivated. There are a lot of "talkers" out there, and good listeners are always appreciated.
