How to Train your Parents

What you do is more important than what you say, because people will usually remember and copy what you do and forget or ignore what you say. Remember the saying.... Do to others as you want done to you.... Would you like to be treated by your parents the way you treat them? Still often we're not happy with the way our parents treat us.... Here's some ideas on what to do about that.

Well if we think our parents are too grumpy, instead of yelling and answering them back, we could show them how we would like to be treated by always talking to them really nicely. We could try not to answer back angrily and could be as co-operative as we can. When you make a real effort to do these things, you will see them change in the way they talk to you." "What about if they're always complaining that you're lazy or you don't do enough around the house? If you do the following, we guarantee you can change that attitude. This week, think of a job that you normally get asked to do, but do it before they ask, and do it better than normal! Then, as soon as it is done, go and ask each parent, if there is anything else they would like you to do. We guarantee that if you do this for a whole week, your parents attitude towards you will change and you might even change a nagging parent into one who gives you a lot of praise within a week! Of course the first time you do it, you have the added excitement of watching their jaw drop, the colour drain from their faces and possibly even having them faint on the floor in front of you! There will be some of you who don't feel that your parents show you enough love or affection. If you want to change that, you can do a lot to help. Surprise them by writing them a little note saying all the things you like about them or what you appreciate about them. You'll be amazed at what an effect this will have on parents who haven't heard anything but complaints from you for years!"
