Breaking Up Is Hard To Do

The older we get, the harder it is to make new friends. I have made some friends in my new neighborhood and most of them are on the same page as I am. We have the same ideals, values and goals for our kids. I trust them and they trust me. Our kids play together, […]

Something Stinks (and it’s not Jr’s dirty diaper!)

Potty training. Like taxes and death, it is an inevitable part of life, for parents. I cannot tell you how many blogs I’ve read, discussing personal potty training methods and nightmares. Parents, all over the country, have tales of frustration and repeated failures to get their tykes to use the potty. Desperation is no stranger […]

Throwing The Book

When a child commits a misdemeanor in your home, do you resort to using the same punishment every time, or do you tailor it to fit the crime? Do you skip the “punishment” in favor of a lecture lesson?
My son made the mistake of writing on the wall, yesterday. It was pretty obvious who […]

It’s a good thing my boys love me!

First let me say - or better yet, let me STRESS just how very much I hate snakes.
Now that we have that perfectly clear - have I got a story for you!
Last Saturday morning near 4:30 AM - the dogs woke wanting out just like any normal day.
I woke up and walked them to the […]

Sunday Sermon

Good morning! Please indulge me a few minutes of your Sunday so that I might shed light on a topic that our society has forgotten. The topic is compassion. It seems as though we have become so focused on bettering ourselves and speeding down life’s highway toward success and wealth, that we have left compassion sitting on the […]

You Can’t Keep A Good Man Down

But try keeping a child who has ADHD and is recovering from an injury, down for a few days. It is a feat that requires some very creative thinking! During the past few days, I’ve had to keep my son home while he recovered from last Friday’s dog attack. Getting my son to sit still […]

When Mom Drops the F Bomb

Around my house the kids know there are two things that will happen before their lives flash before them and they get a glimpse of the gates of hell.  Those two things are mom dropping the F Bomb and the glare of terror.
Over the last several days, we’ve had the discussion going on here about […]

Slaying The Dragon: Part II

I’ve decided to make the quest to rid my children of their greed spawned dragons, an ongoing topic here at Guerilla Parenting. My hope is that you all will join me in the quest to foster a greater appreciation in our children. I have broken down each part of the journey into smaller steps. Today, we begin with the […]

Slaying The Dragon

What is the most useful weapon in killing the horrid greed monster that often grips children?
My son just turned eight. During the week of his birthday, he went to Disneyland, Chuck E. Cheese and got breakfast in bed. Still, he found things to complain about. He even went so far as to say, “This is the worst birthday ever!” Something […]

Better than Fiction - Reporting Live

I thought this was a great conversation my family had over the dinner table… One I just had to share…
Son - “Today in school we talked about what we wanted to do when we grew up.”
Me - “You did? So what did you say you wanted to do?”
Son - “……zzzzzz pause ummmmm, ohhhh what’s […]
