Step into their shoes!

See the checklist below if any of these are your wants:

• My kids mustn’t scream
• Children should listen to us
• They should follow my directions
• Kids should respect their elders always
• I shouldn't have to repeat things to them
• They should understand and do the right thing

If you’ve ticked 3 or more of these (Most will tick all 6), you have some unrealistic expectations from your children. Just like you should not put on weight and your spouse should always understand that you are doing so much for them and your boss should know how hard you work and give you a raise, likewise your kids should do all that you want them to do. How easy is that to expect and how impossible is it to obtain?
