5 Tips for Positive Parenting

  1. Your children will do as you do, so be the best possible role model.

  2. Talk with your children, not at them. Invite their input and ask for their opinions and solutions, although you should make the final decision.

  3. Get involved. Know where your kids are and what they're doing.

  4. Keep your promises. If you can't, apologize and explain the reason why. Your children will lose trust in you if you continually go back on your word.

  5. Start the day with a smile, and your kids will, too.
