Just finished reading ‘Raising Warriors: Preparing Your Children For a Godly Life’ and it really opened my eyes to some new ways of guiding my kids in their faith. Highly recommend it if you’re looking to strenghten your family’s spiritual life
Thank you a thousand times. I could cry. I was abused as a child and am trying so hard to be a good parent without yelling and falling apart. This helps. I wrote it down to remind myself.
Same here man. I know it is NO excuse to yell and rage out but I had a lot that I went through in my childhood. It was rough. And I really do not want the same for my oldest daughter, or my other children.
1. Be clear on what you control and what you don’t control. 2. Calm voice, Calm face, Calm body 3. Give them two choices 4. Separate the emotion from the discipline 5. Remember your job...love them! Excellent advice I just shared it with my favorite people! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My eyes are watering. I watched this about a year ago when my daughter was turning 2. Now she’s turning 3 and holy hell, I needed this now more than ever 😩😩 “remember your job…” “your job is to love them” broke my heart…. Absolutely true.
- Don't let them see that they can control your emotions. - When parents are smiling, kids are thinking. - Give them a solid, stable presence. Super helpful. Thank you!
I am not alone being such a parent with the similar problem but feel bad each time after yelling or saying something bad to kids. I almost forget that my first job is to love my kid. Thanks for this great video. Later my son would ask me： mon, may I ask you something, but please firstly promise that you won't reply to me loudly. At that moment, I feel shame about myself. I am happy to grow up with a better parent with my son too. Thank you all
I am really having a difficult time with yelling and defiance. I have been listening to your videos and reading books and nothing is helping. It was definitely ingrained from childhood. It's so stressful!
I am sorry but i kinda feel relieved that i am not alone. It definitely is ingrained from my own childhood. And i have been trying every single day, every hour to overcome it. Or even to be a happy parent for at least sometime every week.
New huge fan here. I did not know you existed until today, and after reading and trying with other videos, this guy is simply the best. Thank you very much.
im so blessed to encounter your video tonight, as i felt really bad for putting my kid in immense pressure to excel in her school interviews, too much emotions tears, yelling, you can imagine.....i feel terrible i lost it.....i hope tomorrow i can wake up and be a better parent, hope the damage is not irreversible....im terrible.....thank you....may God bless you
Thank you so much! That’s was a big help. I feel so bad when I yell at my 7 year old daughter just to get her to get dressed, pick up after herself, etc.... yes my job is to love her no matter what or even if. And yes keeping the emotion out of the discipline. Thanks again!
Thank you for this video Dr. Paul. I love my daughter even when she hates and pushes me away. I still take care of her even though I'm depressed of our situation. Thanks. I hope someday things will work out and will be okay.
Dr. Paul thanks for the videos. I was talking with my husband and telling him about ,,calm face, calm voice, calm body,, and my daughter was around. And after a few days i get nervous about something and start to raise my voice on her. And she just say it calmly: mom, please, calm face, calm voice, calm body. Hahahah i couldn't stop laughing. It was like i listen some of your videos 😊
This video really hit me down in my heart. I lose control constantly. This video reminds me that I can face these problems without losing control and also reminds me how much I love my kids.
Thanks for your videos. Really helpful stuff! I've never even once yelled at my 5 year old. My wife thinks I'm too soft with him but I never believed that yelling at him helps in the long run. Great advice with the 2 choices also. Cheers!
Thank you so much Dr Paul! I'm not a parent yet but currently babysitting my nephew. Sometimes he just dont listen to me and starts crying when i dont do as he want.
Thank you so much Dr. Paul! I'm a new subscriber, binge watching your videos. They have already made a tremendous impact on my parenting and my children's behavior. I'm hoping my husband(who grew up without a dad- and was mostly raised by his older sister while mom worked hard to provide) will soon be on board with watching and discussing the tips you give. I've read some harsh, petty, somewhat crazy comments on your videos, but when you come across those, I want you to remember that you REALLY are making a difference in thousands of little lives and I for one pray God's richest blessings on your ministry!
Just have to say, this channel has helped so much on my parenting! Sure, I would have figured it out without, but now I have new ways to view situations and handle them, I can see it affecting our daily life! The one with giving a choice I picked up from another video and it really works (well, most of the time at least). Every parent should be presented with this!
Oh boy... I like Dr. Paul phrase love them no matter if. Of course every parent loves their kids and in other words it takes a lot of patience. I need that because every parents loves their kids when they listen and they still love their kids when they don't listen it's like a challenge love. My daughter 5 starts comparing herself with her little brother which is 2 like why I don't yell at him. That's what she sees.
Thank you so much I feel a lot because I was yelling so much at my kids today because I was overwhelmed and stressed out. I feel like I failed as a parent. I’m so so tired because feel like I’m not getting much help from my partner. And most of the time I feel like it’s not my kids it’s me. I feel like they don’t listen to me and I get very overwhelmed. I want to be better. Calm voice, calm face calm body.
Since you are tuning in and learning it suggests that you are actually a great parent that cares! Live On Purpose offers a free 30 minute coaching and get acquainted session. Here is the calendar: calendly.com/liveonpurpose-team/free
Thank u so much Dr Paul .it's really help me to make us better as parents. And I think we should teach ourselves before we teach our kids. It's like mould. Mould ourselves before we mould our kids.
I am trying so hard to put this to practice. Sometimes I start up so well but end up yelling when I become frustrated 🙈Thanks so much Dr Paul, your videos have been life changing for me. You are indeed a Godsent! Will keep striving to do better🤗
Keep trying girl! I am ashamed to say that I have been yelling at my children for too long. But with the help of Dr. Paul's videos, his free Portable Positivity e-book, & the Parental Power-up course (available for purchase), I am slooowly learning how to handle situations better & not yelling so much. A commenter on another video cleverly labeled us "recovering yellers". 😁 We're trying, & that's why we're here! 💛
Irene Ifere Ohia, You are recognizing what is causing the yelling and that is the first step. Deal with the frustration and you will be on a more positive path. Glad you are enjoying the videos.
I am going to practice calm voice calm face calm body,,,,I can do this,I want to be a good mom,I really do,being a good mom is my biggest dream,the first thing to control is to stop yelling.
Thank you! This is really helpful and got me thinking a lot. I'm going to use these tips. Thank you again, really glad your video popped up on my screen
Can u explain your technique for discipline in public. I don’t know if it’s a sensory issue but my 4 yr old always acts up in public but rarely at home. I feel helpless because obviously I don’t wanna yell or seem like a monster who is dragging her kid and all that ... So how do respond in public when everyone is looking? And I can’t just leave like the doctors office etc
Hi Dr.Paul! Thanks for another great video! The examples really help. I struggle the most with finding appropriate consequences that work. Does your parenting power up cover more of that? I admit to yelling sometimes and I always feel guilty because I wish I could have handled it better. I want to be a better example for them.
The parenting powerup has more examples and different categories of child development. I am able to go into the principles more so once you have a handle on the principles, it become easier to apply the consequences.
I found a big help was when I led and directed my kids day. I allowed them choice where appropriate. But, instead of giving an instruction and walking off, I was present and if necessary hands on with the task at hand. The moment I stopped directing or leading, chaos insued. Or if they weren't cleaning up their room, I would say, 'oh, I see you're having trouble cleaning up you're room how about you pick up 5 pieces of trash for me and put them in the bin? Then 5 toys, then 5 pieces of dirty clothes etc. 1or, I'd turn it into a race. Whoever gets their part of the room tidied up first, wins. So much less streß and the kids love it. ☺️
I love all of your videos. This one in particular brought tears to my eyes at the end... where you thanked me for being a loving parent. I truly do love my children and I am so grateful for them. Thanks for your kind words and great tips!
THANK YOU FOR JUST BEING YOU! Your personality is a gift and it's so powerful to " Live on Purpose " ❤ your work has helped so many parents and Families. You are uplifting and inspiring. Your videos short sweet. GOD BLESS. THANKS AGAIN. Have a Happy Day!
Very good talk. Thank you so much from this mom who has a second grader who is my fifth child but so different from the others and so much harder to figure out. 😊
Hi! I really learn a lot from you, thank you! Unfortunally I have a very clever son at 6 and a half who will copy everything that I do. He also gives me 2 choices now, to try make me do what HE wants. That makes me angry again and feeling helpless. What to do?
"Meta-cognition is a made up word. We make up words in psychology because it makes us feel smart." I majored in Cognitive Science and I've never heard a more accurate description of literally everything I studied.
Thank you alwayz 😀 Stay amazing Dr. Paul 👍. Have a phenomenal day everyone filled with lots of unconditional lovez, light, and laughter 😊😘👍👍👍💖💕❤💙💝💫🌠🌟✨🔥🍀🌈☀🌈🌹🌼🌻🌸🎊🎉🎆🎶💰💵💰💵#BESTLIFEEVER
I was trained with this parenting method because my mom was passive and afraid to show aggression. I can attribute that it 100% doesn't work. 😂 All you're doing is teaching your kids to lie. The only way out and get what they want is saying "sure I'll do it x way." and not doing it. Congrats.
It might be a factor if the personality had that tendency, Darloonie. I don't think that every child will develop into a narcissist if unchecked. Many other factors involved.
To be a good parent (especially for kids during their adolescence) you need to put yourself in their shoes. Teens are like miniature adults, they aren’t like kids who blindly follow their parents no questions asked. Kids that age don’t know any better, but teens possibly do. If you want them to obey you, then you must give good reason for everything you want them to do and for what you do to them. If you give them some valid reasons it’s likely they’ll listen to you, and trust me the "I’m your mother/father" never works. What you also need to know is to never yell. Yelling gets you no where and your child will just end up wanting to ignore you more or even yell back. It won’t make what your saying anymore clear. Now something to keep in mind for if you have more than one kids is that if they ever get into a fight, blaming or yelling at the one who you think is in the wrong won’t solve the problem. Instead think about how you can help the one harmed rather than shaming the one at fault. That’s about all I have to say.
My son tells me I am always yelling or being angry when I talk in a , “direct, stern, and louder than usual tone”, but I don’t think I’m yelling and I try not to be the type of parent who fusses loudly at him but this video def brought a lot of things in to perspective!! Im going to work on discontinuing my loud tone and stick with the eye contacts and directness !
Dr. Paul, the example with 1 grader in my case can turn to fight during my inforcement of "dressing up assistance" with screaming "don't touch me!" and slamming the door in the room or bathroom. What's the next healthy step you can suggest?
Nichka I had this problem before. Can you try giving them 2 choices of outfits? You can choose one of these, or an outfit I choose. Let’s see how fast you can get dressed. I have a child who sometimes won’t wear what I pick out, he will pick something non-matching, and do something silly, like put on 3 pairs of socks. When I let him choose to do that, and stopped showing that it bothers me, he eventually stopped doing that.
Giving choices is good, you may have to follow through with enforcing your choice. I would tell the child that yelling and slamming doors will not change the topic and calmly proceed to get him dressed.
@@LiveOnPurposeTV what do you mean by "calmly proceed to get him dressed"? Physically enforcing to dress up? This process wouldn't be calm for sure :) Also I have troubles imagining me successfully dressing him up if he refuses. We are talking about 8 year old boy. Very free willing and rules avoidant person. Thank you so much for responding!
I did not realize he was 8, I was thinking much younger. Yes, you would probably have to find another way but slamming doors is not acceptable behavior and he may lose some screen time or something else.
@@VeroNika-gc7mb i have same problems with eldest when she was young. You can find more positive things that can be increased or decreased to reach compliance. I loved doing positive charts. Like for any task u want to b done u let them fill a chart. This shows them their hard work or compliance physically. I tried talking with my children about how they also make me feel when they do or dont cooperate. My kids really enjoy one on one where they too speak of their feelings and we do an activity they enjoy
I'm frustrated because I feel like I have to yell.. I'm having a hard time asserting my words to what I'm actually frustrated about and have clear boundaries.. my job is to love them .. emotions aside from discipline and confident that I am doing a good job ♡

Thank you a thousand times. I could cry. I was abused as a child and am trying so hard to be a good parent without yelling and falling apart. This helps. I wrote it down to remind myself.

Me too.
❤🙏🏼 same here
Same here man. I know it is NO excuse to yell and rage out but I had a lot that I went through in my childhood. It was rough. And I really do not want the same for my oldest daughter, or my other children.
1. Be clear on what you control and what you don’t control.
2. Calm voice, Calm face, Calm body
3. Give them two choices
4. Separate the emotion from the discipline
5. Remember your job...love them!

Oh wow! I am glad you came back to the channel.
“Separate emotion from the discipline” brilliant! 👌
And so necessary to truly have discipline and not punishment, Eu Avalos.
Yes! But easier said than done sometimes!
- Don't let them see that they can control your emotions.
- When parents are smiling, kids are thinking.
- Give them a solid, stable presence.
Super helpful. Thank you!

Hey Beatriz, check out Tiger Claw Karate Dojo on youtube for your kid if you want something for him to do. It's free.
How did it go? Are you still able to stay calm and collective? It’s so hard for me...

Hi! I really learn a lot from you, thank you! Unfortunally I have a very clever son at 6 and a half who will copy everything that I do. He also gives me 2 choices now, to try make me do what HE wants. That makes me angry again and feeling helpless. What to do?
M.J., so he thinks he can take charge? Guess you will have to show him that is not how it works.
Thank you for the video, very helpful, however I have a request, can you make a video on activities that siblings do together to encourage teamwork?
Great suggestion! Cat making a come back, I will add the topic suggestion to our list.

Thank you, Deseree Kjersem. More to come.
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
I was trained with this parenting method because my mom was passive and afraid to show aggression. I can attribute that it 100% doesn't work. 😂 All you're doing is teaching your kids to lie. The only way out and get what they want is saying "sure I'll do it x way." and not doing it. Congrats.
There are two things needed, love and discipline, to raise a healthy child.
When you said that about the child thinking about the power they have over the adult, it made me wonder if that could lead to narcissism.
It might be a factor if the personality had that tendency, Darloonie. I don't think that every child will develop into a narcissist if unchecked. Many other factors involved.
Can you make more videos anchored toward kids/teens?
Yes, yourestupid. If you have any specific ideas, let me know.
Yes, yes! Finally!

You are welcome, Kirra Lorenz. I hope others will find the principles helpful.
To be a good parent (especially for kids during their adolescence) you need to put yourself in their shoes. Teens are like miniature adults, they aren’t like kids who blindly follow their parents no questions asked. Kids that age don’t know any better, but teens possibly do. If you want them to obey you, then you must give good reason for everything you want them to do and for what you do to them. If you give them some valid reasons it’s likely they’ll listen to you, and trust me the "I’m your mother/father" never works. What you also need to know is to never yell. Yelling gets you no where and your child will just end up wanting to ignore you more or even yell back. It won’t make what your saying anymore clear. Now something to keep in mind for if you have more than one kids is that if they ever get into a fight, blaming or yelling at the one who you think is in the wrong won’t solve the problem. Instead think about how you can help the one harmed rather than shaming the one at fault. That’s about all I have to say.
name, thank you for taking the time to comment and give us some things to think about.
Thank you

Wise words.
My son tells me I am always yelling or being angry when I talk in a , “direct, stern, and louder than usual tone”, but I don’t think I’m yelling and I try not to be the type of parent who fusses loudly at him but this video def brought a lot of things in to perspective!!
Im going to work on discontinuing my loud tone and stick with the eye contacts and directness !
Jasmine Q, I am glad it is helpful.
THAT is my hardest thing to do. Separating the emotion from the discipline. That, and knowing how to discipline in the first place.
It is difficult, but worth the struggle.
Such a wonderful video Dr Paul ... love from Australia
Thanks, Pooja Chugh. I love connecting with people around the world.
Dr. Paul, thank you for this video.
This is amazing.
Glad you enjoyed the video, margarita Ziababian. Honored to be on your team.
Genius dude
Juan carlos Beltran, thanks.
Dr. Paul, the example with 1 grader in my case can turn to fight during my inforcement of "dressing up assistance" with screaming "don't touch me!" and slamming the door in the room or bathroom. What's the next healthy step you can suggest?
Nichka I had this problem before. Can you try giving them 2 choices of outfits? You can choose one of these, or an outfit I choose. Let’s see how fast you can get dressed. I have a child who sometimes won’t wear what I pick out, he will pick something non-matching, and do something silly, like put on 3 pairs of socks. When I let him choose to do that, and stopped showing that it bothers me, he eventually stopped doing that.
Giving choices is good, you may have to follow through with enforcing your choice. I would tell the child that yelling and slamming doors will not change the topic and calmly proceed to get him dressed.
@@LiveOnPurposeTV what do you mean by "calmly proceed to get him dressed"? Physically enforcing to dress up? This process wouldn't be calm for sure :) Also I have troubles imagining me successfully dressing him up if he refuses. We are talking about 8 year old boy. Very free willing and rules avoidant person.
Thank you so much for responding!
I did not realize he was 8, I was thinking much younger. Yes, you would probably have to find another way but slamming doors is not acceptable behavior and he may lose some screen time or something else.
@@VeroNika-gc7mb i have same problems with eldest when she was young.
You can find more positive things that can be increased or decreased to reach compliance. I loved doing positive charts. Like for any task u want to b done u let them fill a chart. This shows them their hard work or compliance physically. I tried talking with my children about how they also make me feel when they do or dont cooperate. My kids really enjoy one on one where they too speak of their feelings and we do an activity they enjoy
I love your videos, thank you.
You are welcome, rose fragale. Thanks for watching.
I needed this.
Thank you! I am glad you are here.
I'm frustrated because I feel like I have to yell.. I'm having a hard time asserting my words to what I'm actually frustrated about and have clear boundaries.. my job is to love them .. emotions aside from discipline and confident that I am doing a good job ♡
You got this! You are the mother your children need.
