The Guide To Successful Parenting 

Dear Friend,

If your kids appear to be out of control; if you feel you are failing in the role of Mommy or Daddy; if you find yourself counting the days until your kids go off to college, it should be enlightening to realize that you aren't alone!

Remember when your child was a newborn? The wonder and awe of actually creating a new life was overwhelming. Nothing could compare with the love and bonding that develops between a parent and child.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could bottle that time in your life and pull it out whenever you needed those memories? Unfortunately, we can't do that.

The reality is that child rearing doesn't come with a manual. And, even if there were, you come to realize quickly that when raising children there are no "one size fits all." What's good for one child may not necessarily be right for another.

A few excerpts taken from the Successful Parenting eBook:
"Every child undergoes a period when he is becoming less patient and is somehow frustrated at how limited his abilities can be. This disappointment and struggle to grasp greater control of things is vented through an activity referred to as temper tantrums"
"A growing child is truly a work in progress. Children at their very early years normally develop several habits that are inappropriate. These habits maybe annoying as in thumb sucking, destructive as in temper tantrums and dangerous, as is the case of biting"
"The modern set up of the family is truly evolving and ever changing. Nowadays, it is normal that the dad and the mum are both working to help the family make both ends meet.
Thus, in the modern-day situation, the welfare of the child is aggrieved. It is very crucial that a child has his parents to turn to during the critical days of his life, when he experiences new things and realizes new insights"
"Chores are the building blocks children need in life. They teach them basic skills and help build personal responsibility. It also teaches them a sense of duty and importance"
"If you think the best liars are actors and lawyers, you're mistaken. Studies show that the best liars out there surprisingly are children"
"R-E-S-P-E-C-T
It's so easy for Aretha Franklin to spell it in a song. But it is a lot more complicated teaching it to children"
All this and much more is at your fingertips. Successful Parenting is written just for you, the person who wants to put the fun back into being a parent.

Handling Temper Tantrums

How to Handle Your Child's Temper Tantrums
Every child undergoes a period when he is becoming less patient and is somehow frustrated at how limited his abilities can be. This disappointment and struggle to grasp greater control of things is vented through an activity referred to as temper tantrums.
Experts claim that temper tantrums often manifest in children aged one to three years. Temper tantrums are usually the nightmares of parents who often also grow impatient over their children's terrible behaviour.
Temper tantrums are manifested through crying, screaming, and breath holding, hitting and kicking. The loud screams and cries usually annoy people. The parents almost always want to just run out of the location where their child is throwing tantrums. Alas, they can never do that.
Psychologists remind parents that temper tantrums are a normal part of the child's growing up years. Some children may throw up regularly, but there are also some who occasionally burst out. It's also true that some children are more prone to developing the habit of throwing temper tantrums and some tend to cease the habit.
Another setback to this behavioural problem in children is that you will never know when a child will suddenly burst out, and you can never tell where. You might have seen children throwing tantrums at places like the movie house, the grocery, and church or even at the bank.
That is why it is imperative that parents know the basics over handling temper tantrums in their children. First-time parents especially should be educated about the subject. All parents, even those who already have children, can also use a refresher.
Moreover, experts warn that not all parents are dealing with the temper tantrums appropriately. While others may be satisfied with their small strategies to pacify their children, it is not assured that those schemes are healthy.

Could there be a silver lining to this whole Octomom debacle? It is a bad individual child-rearing situation but she is a lightning rod for a national discussion about parenting.
