Let’s explore personal growth and revival together!

After spending the last week talking to my girlfriends and guy-friends about our frustrations for getting our tweenagers and teenagers to do their chores without yelling, screaming, and crying-mostly us parents doing the yelling screaming and crying that is-I wanted to explore my own feelings on this particular subject and also do a little internet research.  Below are the two internet resources I used that gave me some great insight into what I'm doing right and what I'm doing wrong.   But I would also LOVE to hear your thoughts, frustrations, ideas, what's worked and what's bombed for you when getting your kids to do their chores! You can email me at [email protected] and let me know what you think and what you feel about this topic and also throw in your ideas on new topics.  7 Important Reasons Kids Should Have Chores  https://www.momentumlife.co.nz/stories/why-kids-should-have-chores The Benefits of Chores  https://centerforparentingeducation.org/library-of-articles/responsibility-and-chores/part-i-benefits-of-chores/

Starting over isn't always neat.  It doesn't mean paper shredding something you don't want to remember or just throwing out things with the next day's garbage.  Sometimes, it means being honest about everything! Being honest about how ridiculous the pain is at the expense of yourself and others, about how funny how some situations that come up truly are and that the end of the day being able to connect to other people who experience the same.  Welcome to Starting Over & Starting Fresh! Hopefully you've stumbled upon a place where you are able to connect to something fun, occasionally silly, mostly informative, and always a community!
