Plan for the Future

Self Reliance & Resourcefulness
Of course we don’t want our kids to fail, and of course we always want them to be successful, but always doing, picking up or mending fences for our kids sure wont help them learn to bounce back and survive on their own. Here is six steps to help your child become more self-reliant.
1. Identify what your child can do alone and then back off.
2. Stop Rescueing- no more excuses, they have to take responsibility.
3. Help children boost their organization skill.
4. Teach brainstorming so your child can solve problems without you.
5. Teach how to negotiate.
6. Talk about the future regularly.
