Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.
Being late has become a status symbol of how busy we are, but it’s not doing us any favors when it comes to stress and anxiety and our interpersonal relationships. While it’s tempting to blame our lateness on genes or traffic, the truth is that we’re late because we haven’t helped our children learn to be on time and we’re always in a hurry.
In this week’s video blog, I talk about how you can train your kids—from toddlers and preschoolers to tweens and teens—to be on time without stressing everyone out. Learn to love the kitchen timer and other tried-and-true tips to get kids on the bus on time. Bonus is that your household will run more smoothly and everyone will be more relaxed.
