Hi, it’s Tanis,
Just checking in and saying “Hello”
I hope you enjoyed our 7 Part Practical Parenting Tips Series.
As an update, Tina is doing well and she says to say “Hello” to everyone.
Tina and I haven’t talked lately, but the last time we talked we were throwing around the idea of maybe having me come over and visit her and her family (we both live in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada) for something like a “Super Nanny” consultation, where I can give her some ideas on how to practically apply a lot of the parenting tips that we went over both in the 7 Part Practical Parenting Tips and 3 Part Giving Your Child What He/She Desires Series.
As Tina explains, she really understands our parenting tips, but just has more trouble getting started or applying them at home.
So I will get back to everyone about what we decide to do since if we go through with it we were thinking of documenting my visits here on my blog.
Otherwise Melody and I have been busy launching and coordinating our New Free 7 Lost Parenting Secrets Report ( www.7lostparentingsecrets.com) and Better Parents Better Kids Newsletter which has been a lot of fun as well as updating out Free 7 Part Embracing Your Child’s Uniqueness Mini E-Course.
By the way, Tina was the 1st person to sign-up for the 7 Lost Parenting Secrets Report and Better Parents, Better Kids Newsletter, so if you are one of our members, just think Tina’s reading along with you!
Melody and I are both getting our footing on the whole Newsletter and E-Course System so we haven’t been writing any new articles or posts lately, but in the meantime I thought it would be really cute to tell you an adorable story about Dr. Robby (The Developer of the Better Parents, Better Kids System) when he was just a young little boy that Melody told me about.
In our Better Parents, Better Kids E-Book (www.betterparentsbetterkids.com) I talked about how children do have a good intent and that the majority of children love to go to school as long as it is fun for them. Therefore there is no need to believe that you have to force children to go to school and stay in school.
There is a small percentage of children who do not like school and that’s o.k. because there may be another way that they would like to learn that suits their style of learning better.
Anyway, when Dr. Robby was a young child he loved learning so much, when he would go out to the store, instead of asking for a toy or a book about Little Red Riding Hood or The Three Bears, he would always ask his Mom to buy an Encyclopedia.
So one by one through the alphabet, his Mom would buy an Encyclopedia until he had the whole set.
As he collected the series, everynight, instead of being read a fairytale or a popular children’s book, he would ask his Mom to read something out of the Encyclopedias.
Then one day when he was about 3 or 4 years old, he was playing in the frontyard when he saw his older cousin who was in Grade One walking by with a stack of books under his arm.
Dr. Robby asked where his cousin was going, his cousin said he was going to school.
Dr. Robby then asked ”What do you do at school?”
“I learn stuff.” His cousin answered.
All excited, Dr. Robby ran into the house, grabbed a stack of books under his arms and said to his Mom who was standing in the kitchen “Bye Mom, I’m going to school!”
Now his Mom didn’t think anything of it, thinking he meant he was going outside to “play school” in the front yard – until she received a phonecall from Dr. Robby’s cousin’s school saying that they have a little boy there who they believe isn’t suppose to be in school quite yet.”
It was the first time I have ever heard of a child who actually ran away “to” school, instead of away “from” school!
I just thought it was a cute story that Melody wanted me to pass on.
I’ll post again soon,
Best Wishes
Tanis
