Who is the Boss...Does Your Child Controls You? As a parent, if you aren’t the boss in your family, the lines of authority can become blurred very quickly. When your children are unsure about who’s really in charge, they often act out, engage in risky behavior, or become extremely bossy and patronizing as a result. And eventually, you start to resent them because you don’t have a way to tell them what to do. You’ve effectively lost control. Many parents also want to be their... child’s friendthey don’t like the idea of being the boss at all. The major problem with this approach is that a friend is non-judgmental, and a friend is a peer. In my opinion, your child’s role simply isn’t equal to yoursas a parent, you have to make judgments and be in charge because otherwise, no one will be in charge. What It Means to Be the Boss of Your Child I want to be clear about what I mean by the boss. I often define this as the limit-setter role when I’m talking to parents. I firmly believe parents need to set limits on their kids and maintain the rules of their household using consequences and accountability. While the limit-setter role is essential, keep in mind that it should not be the only one you use. The other critical roles I’ve identified are the teacher role, where you help your child learn how to behave more appropriately, and the coach role, where you challenge your child to behave bettermuch like the coach of a sports team would do. All three roleslimit-setter, teacher, and coachare needed for you to be a highly effective parent, particularly with adolescents. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99sBluziPSQ Okinawa Karate Kobudo Kai 1626 Dutch BroadwayElmont, NY 11003 Www.okinawankenpo.com 518 - 837 - 0111
