Your children's brains change over time and the way they function during different time periods determine their behaviors, cognitive abilities, comprehension, and reactions
We have to understand the stages of development
We have to be reminded of where they are at during each level of development
Each child's growth and development is on their own timetable
We need to be aware that change and growth is happening all the time but at different levels in different areas
When you don't respect the age appropriate development levels, you will not get the outcome you want
Before you respond, try to connect, mentor or discipline you children, you have to assess where they are developmentally
You have to approach each child differently and treat each one individually
The best way to raise competent and capable adults is by having a powerful and meaningful relationship with them
We are raising our best friends, people that we want to help, spend time with, and enjoy being with
The better your relationship is with your children, the better their development will be
Don't compare your children and don't force them to do what the other does
We do our kids a massive disservice if we are not aware of what is going on in their heads
We want to see each kid and see how we can help them develop the full person
We are trying to help them develop to their full potential or at least put them on the right path so they can follow it
When they see the connection to their lives and see the relevance and meaning, they understand more and are more likely to choose the things that we want for them
If the "teen" years have been rough, it's a symptom that something has been off, particularly in your relationship
Every single interaction that you have throughout the day is taking you on one path or the other
Depending on what your daily interactions are like, you can have a positive or negative outcome
They don't always think things through to consequences or outcomes
We need to teach them to have a moral compass to help them make better decisions
We need to approach parenting from a brain development, brain conditioned relationship based approach
