Eyres On The Road

Today the Eyres focus on some of the common mistakes they've seen in parenting. They make it simple and line out three things to stop and then in turn start in parenting. First they suggest stopping the entitlement attitudes by starting a family economy. Making children responsible for their own finances even in a small way can start them thinking about money in a self-reliant way. The next thing to stop is psudo-discipline by starting a family legal system. When rules of the house are made together as a family instead of handed down from the parents, then everyone will understand why they are there and what the recourse will be. Finally they suggest parents stop fearing outside cultures and start a family culture. Make it clear the kinds of things that your family is all about and that the main sourse of teaching comes in the home and not outside cultures of media, politics, or peers.
