We want to raise emotionally intelligent, connected and kind children who will become awesome adults. We want them to build good relationships, ask good questions and understand the purpose behind everything they do.   Instead of resigning ourselves to kids just being kids, we can intentionally and proactively teach them what matters and stop reinforcing the wrong ideas.   How do we help our kids communicate, develop and grow? How do we teach them lessons that allow them to thrive well into adulthood?   In this episode, I’m joined by writer, speaker, online community leader, and author of “52 Modern Manners for Kids”, Brooke Romney. She shares why she’s passionate about helping children build better relationships, learn good manners and feel more connected.   Self-confidence doesn’t come from a parent saying you’re awesome 200 times a day. It comes from tackling hard tasks and feeling capable, and that’s really important. -Brooke Romney     3 Things You’ll Learn in This Episode   -Reinforcing the right ideas  How do we teach our kids to see the purpose behind activities when they aren’t based on having fun?   -Forget “kids will be kids” How do we raise our children to become awesome, aware and kind adults?   -Persistence and irrational value  There’s no such thing as an overnight success.
