The Truth Behind The Blog

I always hear parents say they are screwing up their kids. I laugh and think, well that is job security for all the therapits out there. I share my parenting views on here as well as my frustrations and aggrevations. My goal will to be to look at parenting in my own unique way and share my experiences.

Laughing

I don't know why more families don't do this.  Just walk around acting crazy stupid.  Laughter, it is the key to a household that can work together.  So when we are arguing we turn to humor until one of us cracks, smiles, let's go of the anger inside.  You want the secret to a happy household, lots of laughter and very little anger.  I hate yelling, I hate raised voices, which is why my husband has been skating on thin ice lately.  Some things that are not important to me are important to him and in the end, the kids know, laughter.  I am tired every morning of hearing the loud voices and the cranky arguments.  My husband won't do things for my son just to be stubborn.  Just so he can assert his dominance and I don't like it.  So truly, maybe the happiest way to have my household peaceful again is to get rid of my husband.  ;-)  LOL  I believe that all things need to be worked out with out yelling.  My son learned my husbands bullying ways and yells more than I would like and pushes my buttons.  Usually, (except once a month) I can bring it back around to laughter.  We really need to focus our homes less on dominances and more on respect and understanding.  Respect your parents, not because they dominate you, because they love you and do for you.  If your children respect what you do for them and what you are in their lives, they are likely to have a more peaceful existence with you.  Don't forget, love is the key and laughter is hte lock.
