Parents have to get to the ROOT of the problem.  In episode 178 we will look at how to deal with bad attitudes at various ages of our kids.Link to earlier episode on teaching the habit of being joyful: Episode 7 "Work Ethic & the Habit of Happiness in Littles, Middles, and Teens"Link to Root Parenting : Episode 25 "Root Parenting vs. Surface Parenting"Link to Root Parenting Part 2: Episode 26 "Digging Deeper to Get to the Roots"A lot of times, the unhappy child just needs to be shown how to handle life - how to handle circumstances around them, how to handle feelings, how to handle others around them, etc.  As parents, we are not just making sure they are fed, clothed, and sheltered. Parents need to EQUIP our kids for the complex parts of life. We want to help them BLOOM in the aspects of their life.  This episode will give you tools to help your children to deal with their bad attitude at various ages.One person's attitude affects:*those around them*the atmosphere of our home*my attitude about other things*my attitude affects me physically*my attitude prevents me from praising the Lord and glorifying HimThe habit of choosing joy, is better for me, for those around, and for God's KingdomSide note: Boredom, lack of direction, lack of accomplishment can be one contributing factor in a bad attitude. We really are designed to accomplish, overcome, discover, explore, investigate, and create.  Kids need to be LIVING, not just existing.  Are your kids spending too much time just being entertained?  Let's get them moving and get their minds thinking.Send Val your encouragement and thoughts about the show.Support the showVisit Val's website: PracticallySpeakingMOM.comJoin Val's Facebook Group Intentional Mom, Strong FamilyFollow Val on Instagram and her Facebook Public Page Practically Speaking MOMWe're on a mission to strengthen families.Want to help cover some of the costs of the show? click here.
