ONLINE PARENTING COACH

Hi Mark, Thank you very much for taking time and reading my story. The question that I have is if you think we did the right thing by telling her that if she made a choice to leave home then she has to live with that and there is no coming back at least for now. It feels right to me but I am getting hammered by my parents who scream and yell that it is all too harsh and I am a bad mother. ==> The first part is O.K. But I would let her know that your door is always open – as long as she is willing to abide by your house rules. The other thing we told her that if she chose to use her biological father as a leverage to get all things her way, we wish her luck and we are not supporting her financially at all, that she is on her own. ==> This is on track!

Hi Mark Thanks for the help and advice you gave me. I did go to the police after my son took that car when I was on holidays. The police would not lay charges because the kid had gone out for 5 mins. and the neighbour called him on the cell phone and told him to get the car right back now! The police told me because they did not have to look for the car they weren't going to do anything. I asked them to come and talk to him then, and they told me that scare tactics like that really don't work with kids any more. The system here sucks. My son is on drugs and he did come home higher then a kite and abusive to me, the one night he didn't come home at all and was at the mall at 2:00 a.m. in the morning and I called him and said that he was to get home and he said that he was not. He came home that morning and slept for 26 hours. The next night I told him that things were going to change etc. like the program talks about, that night he went out I told him to be back...

G'day I just joined/purchased and have commenced reading through. I find that each page says 'Instructional video #1" etc, but I cannot find any instructional video. Would you please let me know what I need to do to change in my settings. Ta, P. `````````````````````````````` Hi P., You had me worried there for a minute. I checked ...and the videos are still there. Does your computer run slow perhaps? Mark ``````````````````````````````` G'day Mark, I have attached screen shots of the first page and the introduction page. As you will see there is a big gap in the beginning of the introduction page that I am assuming is where the video is - this is the same for all the other pages as well. Any suggestions? Cheers, P. :o) ```````````````````````````````` Hi P., If you have a slow computer, the videos may take awhile to load. Here are some suggestions that may speed things up a bit: 1. First, try rebooting your computer (i.e., turn it off, then back o...
