Positive Discipline Online Class – Routine Charts

by Pamela Laney

One of my LEAST favorite duties as a parent was the constant “reminding” that happened every day:

• Brush your teeth.
• Don’t forget your backpack.
• Did you do you take out the trash yet?
• You have soccer practice today.
• Do your homework!

This constant flow of “helpful prompts” made me feel like a nag, made my son feel defeated, and left both of us exhausted.

And then I took a Positive Discipline Parenting Class.
