Questions for Journaling
If you haven’t yet integrated some sort of job/chore plan into your parenting structure, what is holding you back from Instilling Helpfulness in your children?
When thinking about your specific daily responsibilities, what are your biggest stressors and which of these tasks do you envision being able to break down and modify for child participation?
What are your children’s interests? How can you integrate these interests into your household tasks? (i.e.: activity/movement - “laundry race”, musical mnemonic device songs and rhythms: “knife, fork, spoon”, etc.)
Based on what we have discussed in this chapter, how do you think Instilling Helpfulness can support your parenting structure?
