Would You Force a Child to Wear Shoes That Don't Fit?

Would you force a child to wear shoes that don’t fit? Then why force an education that doesn’t fit! Well, that’s what is happening to hundreds of thousands of school children every day. And those in private schools or homeschooling programs are not automatically better off.

Opportunities Versus Mistakes

We often have parents ask us what they can do when their children become upset about mistakes. For example, recently, a mom reported that her son became very upset when he took a quiz and missed one question. He did not focus on the 9 out of 10 that were correct, but on the one that he missed. He didn’t think he should be making any mistakes at all! This can be a tricky issue. We need to examine our own actions, behaviors, and statements to see if we are contributing to the child reacting in this way.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Mariaemma Willis

"We mostly grow up with people pointing out what's "wrong" about us and wanting us to "fix" it. Learning Styles tell what's RIGHT about you - let's make sure the kids in our lives grow up knowing what's RIGHT with them!" Mariaemma Willis

"Teaching or parenting or planning a career without learning style information is like trying to build houses without blueprints!" Mariaemma Willis

"When I was a child, my mother said to me, 'If you become a soldier, you'll be a general. If you become a monk you'll end up as the pope.' Instead I became a painter and wound up as Picasso." Pablo Picasso
