Say what you mean, mean what you say. I love how you said, "Don't Blink, Don't Back Down." Consequences come fast in my home. I think I've even seen Junior's head spin a time or two! More parents need to learn that follow through is so critical with kids. Say what you mean, mean what you say. I love how you said, “Don’t Blink, Don’t Back Down.”

Consequences come fast in my home. I think I’ve even seen Junior’s head spin a time or two!

My ex and I had different ideas about how to parent our kids but they evolved and were negotiated over time as the kids grew. Blended families are sort of thrown in together. The other issue is having to deal with the parenting style and rules of the ex-spouses. That too has been a challenge for us. Thanks for writing and reading. Good luck. I'd love to hear more.
