aising a child to be respectful is a full-time job. It can be difficult to balance the overwhelming love you feel for your child and the need to discipline them. It is more beneficial for your child when you are a parent that sets boundaries and holds yourself accountable for enforcing the rules.
Parental authority describes the responsibilities and duties that a parent has towards their child until they reach the age of maturity (18). Parental authority grants you the opportunity to have the final say in what happens to your child and how they will be raised, as well as a promise to watch out for their safety and well being.
Parental authority also carries the weight of the decisions the parent must make to help their child grow up and navigate the world around them and to become a productive member of society.
Raising children to become adults who will be responsible and treat others with respect and kindness is the goal of every parent, which is why it is crucial to know how to bring up well-balanced children who know how to respect you.
This book provides struggling parents with some insights and strategies into how to address a disrespectful child and how to raise children who know how to listen and follow through.
Introduction
R
aising successful children is hard. Indeed, it is one of the most challenging things that anyone can do. You are taking a brand new human being and essentially training them to be a good person and to integrate into a society that will judge them, push them to the limits, and try to unfold them. Realistically, they will be pushing you to your limits, unfolding your cool, and making you feel like being part of society again is a far-off dream.
The good news is that everyone is, or once was, or will be in the same position as you are in worrying about turning a disrespectful child around. Most parents inherently know how to love their child and wish the best for them, but in the process of raising your precious being, there will be some bumps along the way that will need to be smoothed out.
There is no guarantee that you will raise a respectful child. Every parent faces challenges when it comes to a child rebelling or displaying unwelcome behavior. Most children will go through a period in their lives when they have behavioral issues or they push the boundaries set by their parents. All kids will try to side-step or nudge the boundaries, and it isn’t set in stone to begin at or end at a predetermined age.
There will be times when your child misbehaves as a toddler, as a tween, as a teenager, and all the ages in between and beyond. Parenting is a lifelong process with new curve balls
thrown in every so often to keep you on your toes.
Drawing from my own experiences as a parent who raised three children and now works in education, this book will offer strategies that you will find useful and tips to get even the most unruly and disrespectful child to understand that you are the parent and therefore hold the authority on what goes.
At the very least, you will learn that you are not alone in your struggles and that there is nothing a child needs more than to have an authoritative parent in their lives, no matter how much they challenge that stance. Children, based on my parenting experience, feel safer in a home with boundaries and rules where they feel cared for.
Whether it’s a toddler throwing a tantrum or a teenager telling you to mind your own business, you will learn how to end your child’s disrespectful backtalk and abusive behavior before it becomes too late.
CHAPTER 1:
How to Establish and Keep
Parental Authority
E
Very parent has moments of chaos in the journey of raising a child. Establishing parental authority will give your children rules to follow without exception. I have learned as an authoritative parent that establishing parental authority early on in your child’s life will help stabilize their household dynamic. This does not mean that you won’t have moments of anxiety or self-doubt when establishing proper parental authority with your children. It also doesn’t mean that parents who worry about their children aren’t doing a good job.
Establishing a peaceful home for both parents and children requires basic parenting authority principles, such as providing children with firm boundaries and a consistent set of rules. When there is respect in the home, children benefit, and parents tend to be much happier.
From a young age, children will generally begin challenging authority; that is how children learn. When a child says, no
or refuses to go to bed, they are asserting their own authority, and in my experience, this is normal. It should not be a struggle to keep your head above water, and if it is, things need to change.
It should be unacceptable for a child to talk back to their parents. A child who gets away with being disrespectful will continue to push the boundaries on that particular bit of bad behavior. Children who learn that it is okay to hit their parents at a young age will continue to engage in this kind of inappropriate behavior.
If your child has become disrespectful or even aggressive, it is time to re-evaluate the way you have been parenting. It is never too late to assert your parental authority and hold your child accountable for their inappropriate behavior.
It is easier to teach your child to be respectful when they are young, but the older they are, the more difficult it becomes. In this case, it is important to
