Book Description

As a parent, you know how much less stressful your life would be if you could count on your children to be more responsible-for their toys, their homework, their household chores, and their choice of friends.

You know you want your children to grow up to be responsible adults. In Teaching Your Children Responsibility, bestselling authors Linda and Richard Eyre show you how to make sure your elementary-school-aged children learn this invaluable lesson.

The Eyres identify twelve simple kinds of responsibility-from responsibility for things to responsibility for actions, from responsibility for choices to responsibility for younger siblings-that children can relate to.

They provide a simple, practical program-with enjoyable exercises, games, and activities-that you can use to teach your children these important concepts.

Written by parents for parents, Teaching Your Children Responsibility will help you give your children the tools they need to thrive in today's challenging world-and help them grow up to be happy, fulfilled adults.

5 out of 5 stars Energy saver!!!.......2007-01-03

The Eyre's make a great point that parents undo the very heart of what responsibility means when they remind their children to do their responsibilities. Their solution is pure gold! They give ideas on how to restructure your approach. Soon your children will be scrambling to be responsible for their own chores and other responsibilities. It took our family about a month to readjust from "parent reminders" to "self reminding." We've been using this system for 2 years now and our children continue to be self motivated in getting ready for school on time, reporting on chore completion, and excelling in their studies. Their easy-to-tailor-to-your-family system gives another benefit. If you are working together as a family to master perfect love (rather than perfectionism), the natural consequence style this book offers allows for greater parent-child communication, understanding, self-improvement that is guided by the parent with the goals and solutions chosen by the child, and the opportunity to practice win/win negotiation skills. If you are looking to raise pro-active, capable children in an emotionally safe, eager to become more efficient environment then this book is for you. Good communication skills will be a boon. If you struggle with helping your children through their concerns then I recommend reading this book along with I Don't Have to Make Everything All Better by the Lundberg's and A Thomas Jefferson Education by DeMille or another of the Eyre's books called Teaching Your Children Sensitivity, all 5 star reading.

5 out of 5 stars Read it!.......2002-05-08

I saw the Eyres on "Oprah" when they were promoting this book & it just made sense. I'm the oldest of nine girls in a house that ran fairly smoothly. I could see that many of the things that had worked for us, they had down but had gone even further to refine the idea. They've helped me realize that I can't wait for my 5-yr-old to get older before I start teaching her these important things unless I want to miss out on prime teaching time with her. They also never sound like they know it all & we must do just as they say. It's been trial & error for them...they just got through more of it than your average sized family. :-)

5 out of 5 stars Great resource that summarizes the values we all need.......1999-07-02

The authors have selected 12 core values that all children need to learn in order to mature into responsible and moral adults. This book suggests that the family select one value a month to discuss and practice thus covering all values after one calendar year. While I have never followed the monthly routine, this book has helped me present different values to my children in ways that they can understand.

For educators who are interested in incorporating values education into their school - this book could be a valuable resource.

I highly recommend it to all parents and others who work with children.

5 out of 5 stars Makes Parenting Fun.......1998-04-21

I have read all of the Teach Your Children...series. The authors approcah is easy to understand and to follow and implement in your own family. I'm glad my sister reccomended these books to me!
