Character DVD Series

OBEDIENCE

Obedience can literally save your child's life.

If you saw your child about to step out onto a busy road and called out 'STOP' - would they respond straight away or when they felt like it?

Many parents don't even realise that they are actually training their children not to obey them!

We've all done it - 'I'm going to count to 3... Come on kids, I really mean it this time!....I'll buy you an ice cream if you come now'

These techniques are commonly used by most parents but we often don't stop to realise what we are teaching our children.

There is a better way.

SELF CONTROL

Self Control is a foundational skill we can teach our children.

Physical, verbal and emotional Self Control prepares children for every aspect of life. It allows them to develop their talents to the fullest potential and, even more importantly, develop spiritual disciplines which require a foundation of Self Control.

It takes time and effort to begin the development of Self Control. However, when it becomes part of our children's character, we have given them a valuable gift that will last a life time.

RESPONSIBILITY

Most parents would agree that one of their goals is to raise children who become responsible adults. Responsibility training is something that begins when they are young and can help our home to be more relaxed and an enjoyable place to be.
