Empower Your Kids Now for Successful Life Navigating Later

March 15th, 2010

By letting you children make descisions and exercise self sufficiency, you will empower them to meet life challenges head on and navigate them successfully.

One of the key elements to successful parenting is positioning yourself as a consultant to your kids. Offering them choices, such as ” you can play quietly inside or make noise outside”. It gives kids control and shows them that every decision has benefits and consequences. Making choices for your children can hinder their own life development skills as they grow older. You want them to be decision makers, not opinions seekers.

Another key part of life is exploring all it has to offer. Many elderly people wish they would have taken more risks in life and tried things outside their comfort zone. You can prevent this from happening to your own children by creating healthy habits at a young age. Encourage your child to try new things like music, art, or even playing ping pong. If you continue to encourage your child with no worries about winning, then they will feel free to embrace new experiences with enthusiam and not trepidation.

Finally, as the parent, you are the best model. Let your own actions show that you think teasing is hurtful, that a work ethic is valuable, and that giving to those less fortunate is essential. These life lessons you share and publicly display will help your child navigate their life with empowering values that she has learned from home.

Being a Good Pet Owner: When to Visit the Vet

March 1st, 2010

Do you get nervous when your pet cat or dog acts abnormal? Instead of contacting the Vet ER room late at night, you might try to find answers to your pet conditions through online research.

There are plenty of Internet websites that promise owners answers to their animals problems. These experts could be Vets working their own clinic website, or pet hobbyists who have passed the basic pet health exam for the pet. You can submit a question such as “my dog ate my body lotion. is this toxic?” In the question submission form, you can list the ingredients in the lotion. The person on the other end of the website can reply letting you know that lotion is poisonous or not. The answer could also contain other information that will help you treat the pet’s condition and the answer might cost only $12.  These online services are  cheaper than a visit to the vet. I know of a friend you used the services of a Pet psychologist online to determine her dogs erratic behavior. She found out her dog had an anger management issue.

Now this seems like a great deal, but obviously information on the Internet has to taken with salt. You really have to understand who is behind the websites. Are they an expert? If you get faulty advice, such as not worrying if your dog is too weak to stand, then trust your own judgment.  The fact is that you know your pet best. Animals that are not walking over a period of days should always prompt a visit to the vet. Some veterinarians say websites never be used to diagnose a problem. The key issue is animals don’t talk, so we have to look, listen, and also feel to determine if there’s an issue or not with our pets.

You can use the Internet to find information after your pet has been diagnosed from an expert. Of course it never hurts to become friends with the vet, so you can call them in the middle of the night. You can find more information about buying pet products at comfortchannel.com
