I was given this as a final project and I had to give it some thought about what are the biggest lessons that I have learned in the past 6 weeks in this class. For the most part I've looked at it in a way like a matchup between my cumulative knowledge that I've gained from taking Becoming a Love & Logic Parent, Mr. Rogers, my own experiences, Daniel Tiger, and various other places in my life and what an actual parenting curriculum would be and what is being taught on how to be an effective and good parent.
After giving it some thought I came up with a rough list that I'll refine over the next three posts...
1. I need to use the gospel library more often for parenting help. I would say scriptures but there are talks and pamphlets that are used as well that are so very helpful and a hidden gem of a resource that I really hadn't even thought of to use.
2. Using my knowledge I have actually gotten a lot of things right. I haven't always gotten things right but when I use my cumulative knowledge that I have gained when I took the Becoming a Love & Logic Parent it was a big game changer for me and how I viewed my role as a parent and that there is another way to raise children.
3. I need to be better at emotional coaching and using that 5 elements of effective punishments. I don't really honestly punish my kids a lot but I feel like this would be a better tool in my arsenal that would be much more effective and more complete than what I've been using.
