Take Away Points:
1. Schedule - Arriving to school and other places on time; keep a strong routine at home.
2. Minimize Sugar & Proper Diet - Keep an eye on the supposedly ‘healthy’ items too such as granola, protein bars, muffins, pasta and rice etc... Increase fresh vegetables and fruits, and enhance their diet with vitamins and minerals.
3. Exercise and Fresh Air - Minimum for two hours a day.
4. Limiting Screen Time - Less than an hour per day.
5. Discipline -
a) praise good behaviour, achievement and excellence and
b) discipline bad or destructive behaviour.
6. Allow your Child to Help - involve your child in everyday chores and activities. Let them do things independently. Guide them, do not help them.
7. Environment - show them the importance of a clean, neat, and organized environment.
8. Together Time - Listen to your child and spend some quality time with them each day.
9. Reading - read to them before bed, play games with them that enhance their reading skills.
10. Control - a parent can interrupt a child’s self-determinism with bad control. Be always in positive control of your child.
