Week 11 was really interesting for me. It was about parenting. When our kids do something wrong, there are 2 things that can happen. The first is the natural consequence. This is when someone does something and the natural reaction is a consequence. An example of this is when a kid drives his car all night, then brings it home on a sunday night with no gas. The next day, he needs to get to school, but he has no gas in his car to get to school. The consequence is he is late. This type of thing happens to us often, and we are taught that this is the preferred way of teaching our kids. There are only a few conditions in which we don't allow them to experience the natural consequence, one of which is it is too dangerous. Then there is  when parents give a consequence to their child, to teach them something without them having to go through the experience.
I other thing I really liked from this week was when we walked about how to correct our kids. The first was is a kind request. This is when we make ourselves at the same level as our kids, and ask them to do something. When that doesn't work there is a firm request. This is still not bossing our kids around, but there is some authority behind the request. Lastly there is the I statement. That is When YOU do this I don't like it BECAUSE of this. CAN YOU now do this. I think all of this is great.
