Parenting Tip #3

Avoid Hypocrisy

Studies show that the old adage of "Monkey see, Monkey do" is entirely accurate.  Nearly all of our actions are from modelling and observation, and but a small few are from advice and lessons.

It is imperative, as parents and role models, that we practice what we preach.

DON'T smoke : Should they respect their bodies and health?

DON'T drink : Do you want self abusive, destructive behavior?

DON'T lie : Do you want to be able to trust your children?

DON'T cheat : Do you want honorable children of character?

DON'T slack off : What sort of work ethic do you want your children to have?

DON'T constantly complain : Do you want to breed that sort of negativity?

DON'T be pessimistic : Do you want your children to strive to achieve?

DON'T be two-faced : Do you want your children to be so with you and their friends?

DON'T belittle your boss : Who is your children's boss?


This Lesson was learned from our Mitra Castano interview
