According to Disney Family Parenting, “Your parenting style affects your child’s weight and whether she will be overweight by first grade, a new study found.
“Children of authoritarian parents had five times the risk of being overweight compared to children of authoritative [a more diplomatic style] mothers,” said Dr. Kyung Rhee, a clinical instructor and research […]
As some of you know, I have recently taken my son off of his ADHD medication. Many factors contributed to this decision, too many to get into now. However, we are doing other things to combat his ADHD symptoms. We are no longer bandaging the problem, rather, searching for answers as to the cause of […]
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 […]
As authors of Guerrilla Parenting (and mommies too,) Gayla and I have been labeled as many things. We have been called tough, unfair, judgmental, harsh, just to name a few. We make our “hard core” opinions on child rearing and discipline, known to all who read Guerrilla Parenting. Sometimes, it costs us readers. Sometimes it offends […]

What it the craziest thing that you have ever done to protect your children? How about when it comes to dating? What lengths would you go to in order to keep your precious daughter safe from the grubby grippers of her one track minded boyfriend? My husband and I have discussed this topic many times, […]
Our family has embarked on a journey from Ingrate-opolis to Gratitude-ville, in order to slay the terrible greed dragon that has taken my children captive. Our next stop along the trip, Routine-Valley seems to be the most difficult terrain. Breaking the vicious cycle of the gimmes and never enough mentality, is proving to be more […]
Nothing pisses me off more than witnessing a parent putting their child(ren) in danger, when on the go. My usual tendency to mind my own business goes right out the window, when I see a child’s safety being compromised, and I lose the ability to keep my mouth shut. I have done so on many different occasions and will […]
