It notes that family structures have changed significantly over time, with more women working and fewer nuclear families. 2. It emphasizes establishing positive mindsets when dealing with parents, such as expecting parents to do their best and seeing students as the best children their parents have. Teachers should never argue or behave unprofessionally with parents. 3. Communication is key - teachers should regularly communicate with parents in a pleasant, positive, and professional manner.

1) It is important for parents to talk to their children about an upcoming separation or divorce before physically separating. This conversation should provide an explanation of what is happening and allow children to ask questions.

The document discusses better ways for teachers to communicate with students. It provides examples of phrases teachers commonly use and how students may interpret them, along with better alternatives. Some key points made include:
- Praising students only for attributes like looks or grades can imply love is conditional and discourage risk-taking. It's better to praise effort.
- When students are upset, they need to express feelings to learn coping strategies, not be told problems aren't serious. Asking how they feel and how to improve helps.
- Explain why hitting is wrong, rather than just saying a student messed up, to have a productive discussion and develop conscience.

If bullying is suspected, parents should talk to their child, reassure them, and work with the school to resolve it. Ignoring bullies and telling adults are advised over fighting back.

However, some responses also acknowledge friends who worked to improve in areas they struggled with, showing a growth mindset.

High Expectations at school are important for achieving success.
Positive expectations are important for students and teachers. When teachers have high expectations for their students, the students are likely to rise to meet those expectations and perform better academically. Conversely, low or negative expectations can become a self-fulfilling prophecy where students fail to meet low expectations. It is important for teachers to communicate positive expectations to students from the first day of school, such as stating that students will have a successful year and learn a great deal. Setting high standards along with high expectations can encourage students to work hard to achieve those standards.

Creating good characters in children and young adults
Creating Good Characters in Children and Young Adults.
In today's society, children witness behaviors that are completely unacceptable, often on a daily basis. That is why Melvin Feller has developed this curriculum and wants to share it on all levels with anyone and everyone! Melvin Feller believes in improving lives as a long-term goal!
These actions could be as simple as a rude comment, a lack of courtesy or it could be much worse. Some kids will see or experience verbal, physical, and/or sexual abuse. Young people are very good at hiding their problems, so don't assume a child is doing fine, based on his/her appearance.
If they are not experiencing these behaviors in person, they see it on television, in their music, and in their video games. After viewing these behaviors enough, these Children and Teenagers begin to think the actions are acceptable or at the very least - normal. Unfortunately, the next step in their progression is to begin acting out what they see. If they do this enough, it becomes a habit. This is such a vicious cycle.
Several years back, I decided that something needed to be done about it. I can't remove the students from their experiences, but I can provide them with good, nurturing experiences. This was the basis for my creation of Your Character Counts Program.

Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide
This document summarizes and discusses a research study on adolescent-parent disagreements and how they are influenced by ethnic and developmental factors. The study examined differences in how European American, Mexican American, Korean American, and Armenian American adolescents responded to hypothetical disagreement scenarios involving topics like chores, dating, and family rules. The findings are connected to self-determination theory and the psychological needs for competence, autonomy, and relatedness. Parenting styles from different cultures are also explored, along with how Arab families balance traditional collectivist values with Western individualism. The document includes activities for discussing concepts from the research and raises further questions about how financial independence and living in home countries might impact adolescents' reactions to conflicts with parents.
Discipline
The nature/nurture conflict gives parents and child development specialists cause for much discussion. A child's temperament and, therefore, his actions are indeed greatly affected by his gene pool. How a parent is able to deal with that child and his actions will considerably affect the outcome of his upbringing.
It is widely accepted that a child whose needs are attended with reasonable speed will learn that the world is a dependable place. This trust in others gives him the base he needs to develop trust in the most important person in the world - himself.
Some parents believe they will spoil a child if they give too much attention to the child as an infant. They do not hold the child frequently, do not believe in rocking a child, and allow the child to cry for long periods of time instead of picking him/her up. Children cannot be spoiled by parents who provide loving care. But the parents must respect themselves enough, not to allow the child to become a tyrant over them.
Parents who are realistic and consistent in their expectations of their children will raise children with firm foundations for independence. Independence for their children should be the goal of parents. What do parents need to do for their children, to show they are realistic and consistent, and to pass along the love and respect children need?
Infants' needs must be met reasonably. If a child cries, he/she is signaling he/she is either hungry, wet, or uncomfortable. A parent must attend to an infant in a reasonable time to teach the infant trust. Infants need verbal and tactile stimulation from the parent. A parent's talking, cooing, or singing to an infant increases the child's learning process. Tactile stimulation of holding and rocking are necessary for the infant's emotional health and growth.
On the practical side, infants should live in clean, safe surroundings. This includes regular baths and diaper changes, being fed regularly as directed by a physician, and receiving regular checkups and immunizations.
What a parent does for and with an infant is expanded, as the child grows older and more independent.
The older child continues to need verbal and tactile stimulation. This can be provided in the way a parent shows affection and teaches his/her child about life. The older child needs consistent care, which includes encouragement to learn by being allowed to explore his/her surroundings. When the child is school age, the parent must express encouragement of learning by being interested in his/her school attendance and progress.
As a child becomes an adolescent the parenting task becomes different, yet the same. The older child is preparing to become independent of the parent. It is at this time that realistic and consistent parenting will pay off. A child raised with respect will generally respond with respect to his/her parent.
A parent should never relax in his/her role as a parent. A parent must always be on the job to provide nurture, love, acce
Muslim parents and children's generation gap and how to deal with it.
The document discusses the challenges facing Muslim families in North America, particularly the generational gap between immigrant parents and their children born and raised in Western society. It notes the differing social environments of parents versus children, with children growing up in a more open secular society. This can lead to identity crises, pressure to conform to peers, and problems like drugs and premarital relations. The document provides advice for parents, including educating children about Islam, open communication, involvement in the Muslim community, understanding different generations, and avoiding confusing culture with religion.
Parenting practices-styles
The document discusses the influence of different parenting practices and styles on adolescent academic success and well-being. It examines research on how parenting behaviors like involvement, monitoring, and communication of values relate to school achievement and mental health. The document also analyzes a specific study that found traditional gender roles in families can intensify gendered behaviors in adolescents over time.
Factors affecting second language learning
The document discusses several factors that can affect success in second language acquisition, including motivation, aptitude, personality, intelligence, and learner preferences. It describes research that attempted to correlate these learner characteristics with L2 proficiency by administering questionnaires and proficiency tests. However, precisely measuring qualities like personality is difficult. Motivation in particular has been extensively studied but the relationship between motivation and success is complex, with the possibility that both influence each other.

Coparenting-Parallel Parenting
Dr. Deena Stacer teaches an online program about high conflict coparenting. She has a PhD in psychology and experience mediating over 850 divorces. Her program teaches parents strategies for disengaging from conflict with the other parent to protect their children from emotional damage. One approach she recommends is "parallel parenting", also called "Mom's World, Dad's World", where parents minimize communication and make independent rules in their own time with the children. This style can help reduce conflict when parents cannot agree on parenting issues.

Home Study Questionnaire Child Information
This document contains questions for prospective foster or adoptive parents and children regarding a potential new child joining their home through foster care or adoption.

Parents are asked to describe their current children and any concerns about how a new child may affect them, while children are prompted to share details about their personality, friend preferences, and hopes for what an adopted sibling would be like. The social worker compiling this information aims to learn as much as possible to find the best match between families and children in need of a home.
Top 5 Things You Should NEVER Say to Your Kids
Women often become entrepreneurs to have a flexible work schedule that allows them to spend more time with their children. While it's important to be careful about what we say to kids, being open and honest with them about things like mistakes, asking for help, and apologies can teach valuable life lessons and build trust. Sharing appropriate details about finances and other challenges with kids in an age-appropriate way prepares them for dealing with real-world issues on their own as adults. Seeking a coach can help ensure conversations with children are handled well.

7_things_single_dads_must_do_to_protect_their_parental_rights[1]
This document provides tips for single fathers on protecting their parental rights. It advises never agreeing to give the child's mother sole custody and explains why. Sole custody gives the mother control and means the father would only have "reasonable parenting time", which is often poorly defined and results in little contact with the child. The document urges fathers to insist on joint legal and physical custody instead and have specific parenting time spelled out in court orders, rather than leaving it vague. It warns that agreeing to the mother having sole custody could severely limit the father's relationship with his child and make it very difficult for him to gain more custody rights in the future.

Authoritarian or Authoritative Parenting Style: Which Is in Best Interest for Children
Tough Love has gone viral on internet. It is a fanfic musical production about the stepmothers of Disney princesses. It is quite a mockery for the self-pitying but in fact cruel upbringing of the young girls. It is fictional and the stepmothers don’t love their stepdaughters necessarily, but we have to reflect on it: when we are parents, what are the best method to be taken so that our children can be responsible and positive grownups. Authoritarian or authoritative? It is a hot topic that never grows old; every parent has their reason to act upon. Experiencing quite a mix of harsh and lenient ways in my childhood, I find authoritative one more favorable. In the following paragraphs, I will talk about the advantages and disadvantages of both parenting styles.
Positive authoritative are defined as parents to be instructive and highly responsive to the development of child growth (Baumrind, 1966); On the contrary, authoritarian is control over most aspects of children’s lives, to make sure they stay on track (Kuppens & Ceulemans, 2019). There are pros and cons to both sides.
As of authoritarian, the most important outcome is the high academic performances. Authoritarian parents put a lot of effort into student’s schoolwork and extracurricular activities, such as playing piano or violin. They closely follow children’s daily routine, make sure every minute will not go wasted. They want every investment to give harvests. They take their children to all kinds of competitions, and win loads of certificates to quantify how successful and extraordinary the child is. They see children as another form of themselves, impose their dreams on children. Indeed, children who have worked all day, with all kinds of championships and scholarships could end up in ivy league and possibly win a prestigious job when graduated. It seems they have lived a life everyone desires and so it satisfies the parents.
However, it is not the most favorable approach in academia, and there are a lot of downsides to it. First, it restrains the possibility of cultivating comprehensive personalities. Children become obedient to their parents, they cannot communicate well with their peers, their only profound relationship are with their parents throughout their lives, and it is no sign of a fully grown man. I personally have seen too much of a case. People who grow up under the shadow of their parents tend to be indecisive and too dependent on their parents. It is the consequence of psychological control of the authoritarian parenting. Whenever they speak of their mind, they got turned down or shouted back. Then they don’t speak much about themselves with self-centered parents, who think they are doing the best for kids. Under high pressures from parents and with no one can turn to, children are also bearing overwhelming stress and defeated feelings, which c.
