Can You Guess the Two Commitments?
I sure hope these post for the 2016 Digital Homeschool Convention have helped you in your classroom. As I know for my family we have learned a lot. So this morning I am back with a new class. The new class is called “Manage Family Emotions with these Two Commitments- Dr. Scott Turansky. Now, I have a question for you this morning. “Can You Guess what the Two Commitments” are?
If you can not, then I would like to ask you to listen to the class. Once your done listening to the course I would like to invite you to come back and share with my family what you learned. As well as share with us what the two commitments meant to you and how you can use these in your classroom.

Parents today often gravitate toward a behavior modification approach to parenting. But relying on rewards and punishment to get things done seldom changes the heart. Parents say, ” If you clean your room you can go out and play,” or “Finish your homework, then you can watch TV.” The problem is that behavior modification appeals to the selfishness in kids. It basically says, “If you do what I say, you can have what you want.” Children then learn to ask the wrong kinds of questions. Instead of asking ” What’s in it for me?” we want kids to ask the question, “What is the right thing to do?” We’re not saying that behavior modification is wrong. It’s just incomplete. God gave each person a heart and if you use a heart-based approach with kids then you have a whole new bucket of parenting resources
Thank you,
