Don’t take responsibility for your child’s disrespect.
The time when we are still career builders ourselves or as students we see things with a different perspective.We are more forgiving to our selves and more often tend to ignore our mistakes , as long as the mistake is irreversible.
After finishing my studies in India when I moved to Phoenix, Arizona in 2003, I looked at everything with a completely different attitude.Even though I was a migrant , I never took my mistakes personally if pointed out. It was a whole new life for me and I took every embarrassment, every fallout as a learning opportunity. Never did the thought crossed my brain that it is my fault and some thing is wrong with me.
In India Life, culture, language, etiquette and more importantly accent is so much different compared to U.S.A. For me it was like learning everything from scratch. I would listen to radio show constantly and try to copy the accent. Remind you not the T.V., but radio because I felt like, learning from T.V was a distraction and it is taking me away from my goal.

- What kind of parent will other people think I am if my child is acting this way?” As hard as it is, remember: your child’s behavior is a reflection of him – not you.
- punishment to fit the crime,”
- Do you have a “good” kid who’s starting to act out? All of a sudden, he’s pushing your buttons, failing to comply with rules and his bad attitude has soared through the roof.
There are millions of reasons why kids act out or push buttons—remember, pushing buttons is just what kids do. Our job is to tell them the limits and hold them accountable for their behavior.
