As September approaches, almost every schoolteacher in America fills with excitement and trepidation. It is, after all, a new year. Like baseball in spring, anything seems possible for a teacher in the fall when it comes to a renewal of spirit: new students, new gimmicks, new courses–and hope does spring eternal. Most good teachers take a mental inventory of what needs to be done to become more successful in their classrooms; unfortunately, however, that usually means having to dwell temporarily on the downside of education.

It’s the time of the year that most kids have been avoiding; Back To School!
Going back to school can make some kids anxious. Some are starting kindergarten and others are transitioning from elementary to middle school or from middle school to high school. Help your child keep things in perspective by helping them to realize that this new experience is exciting. Encourage them to have a positive attitude about the experience. Back to school can be frustrating and stressful due to poor time management, organizational and communication skills. Start off the school year by leading by example. Set the standards for a responsible, independent, and successful child by living by the core life values you want to instill in your child. If you are always running late or making excuses, your child will assume that this is the attitude to take towards life. Read the rest of this entry »

Welcome to Super Parents Talk. Here I hope to provide advice, tips, resources and my experiences as a parent in the hopes that it may help a parent in need as well as provide a place for parents to come together. I have 3 sons ages 19, 17 and 2. So some-days for me, it seems like I have been parenting forever. At this point in my life I am finding myself having to re-learn many things in regards to parenting. It can make for quite an interesting day dealing with toddler issues and teenage dilemmas.
Being a parent is not an easy job and there are no instruction manuals or sure fire parenting techniques that work for all parents. There are many obstacles and bumps along the parenting road. Believe me when I say I think I have hit all of them so far. I found myself many times in need of advice and support. Which is why I made it my mission to try and help those in the same parenting boat as me. Help them find the support and tools they need to be the best parent they can be.
Now I am no mother of the year that is for sure. I have definitely had my parenting blunders. But really who is a perfect parent? But I am a Super Parent. What is a Super Parent then if it’s not a perfect parent or wonder woman? A Super Parent to me is not perfect by any means but a parent who strives everyday to be the best parent they can be. A Super Parent is one who faces the obstacles head on determined to prevail but realizes they can’t win without help sometimes. They are the parent who realizes they are the key to their child’s future and takes their role as a parent seriously. I could go on and on about what my definition of a Super Parent is. We all have it in us to be Super Parent’s. Please do take advantage of the helpful information here and don’t hesitate to share your wisdom, thoughts and experiences here as well.
Sincerely,
Tammy
