5 Ways to Teach Kids to Stand for What They Believe In.

Musu put a soda can in the trash and my younger son piped up, “Don’t you care about the polar bears?” Ah, they must be teaching about the environment at school this week. I promptly moved the can to our recycle bin and thanked him for reminding me. I also praised him for caring about the environment. To hear him talk about something other than Roblox was refreshing and I’m glad his heart was stirred for a cause.
It wasn’t hard for my son to call out my bad behavior, but I wonder if he knows how to confront someone who’s not his mom. What if the things our kids believe in are more controversial than recycling? Would they know how to speak up in a respectful way? Here are 5 ways to teach kids how to stand for what they believe in.

1. Help them put their thoughts into words.

If you want to stand for what you believe in, you have to be able to articulate your thoughts. The same goes for kids. They don’t need to be prepped for a debate, but having conversations about the topics they’re passionate about is great practice for being able to discuss them with people who disagree.
My friend’s family doesn’t drink because of a history of alcohol abuse. Three generations in a row have pledged to stay alcohol-free to try to break the cycle. My friend’s daughter has practiced telling her friends why alcohol isn’t the choice she’s making for herself or her future.

2. Educate yourself and them.

Kids naturally believe what they hear and read (hence the reason we have a bunch of toys that aren’t nearly as impressive as they appeared in the commercials). If you want your child to be confident in defending what they believe in, make sure they know the truth around it, not just random things they’ve read on the internet.
My mom taught world religions to high schoolers. I remember the day she came home talking about a boy who defended the Bible better than any adult she’d heard. He knew where the Bible comes from, how its history and world history coincide, and why he believe its inherent truth.

3. Show them other incredible kids.
It’s confusing for kids to hear some people say, “Stand for what you believe in!” at the same time as others say, “You’re just a kid. What do you know?” There have been plenty of junior achievers throughout history, so be sure to tell your kids about them to give them a boost in confidence.

The examples you show your kids don’t have to be kids who are passionate about the same things as them. Just pick kids who are courageously and creatively working for a cause. Some great examples are Mari Copeny, who’s known as “Little Miss Flint” and was only 8 when she wrote a letter to President Obama about the elevated lead levels in Flint’s drinking water; Kid President; and the prophet Jeremiah, who was only 17 when God called him.

4. Prepare them to encounter adversaries.
We tend to live and socialize with like-minded people, so your children might not know anyone who doesn’t think the way they do. The first time they encounter someone who is indifferent to their cause or opposed to it could be jarring if you haven’t prepared them.

Our freshman year of college, one of my friends from church got paired in the dorms with a roommate who was Muslim. It was a life-changing year for her. Because of their late-night conversations, she grew in her faith and learned about another faith and culture. Tell your kids it’s OK and even a good thing to meet someone who disagrees with them.

5. Remind them to speak with respect.
As soon as you show others disrespect, you’ve lost their attention and put up a wall. This is true even in conversations in marriage or between parents and kids. I assure you, had my environmentally-minded son looked at me and said, “Are you stupid, Mom? Why aren’t you putting the can in the recycle bin?” the conversation that followed would not have been about polar bears.

Raising an honest child starts with these 6 guidelines.

When my kids were two, watching them attempt to cover their tracks, to fib their way out of trouble, was almost comical. But let me tell you—when they’re 10, it’s far less adorable. The lies and their ramifications grow with the child. And without nipping dishonesty in the bud early, you may wind up with teens so accustomed to bending the truth that they have a hard time breaking the habit.

Encouraging truthfulness in our children is one of the most important aspects of developing their character. So how do we keep our kids honest, even when it’s hard? By following these 6 guidelines.

1. Don’t overlook a child’s lie, even if you think it’s funny.
There’s a great temptation to overlook a preschooler’s dishonesty because we’re a little charmed or amused by it. But overlooking even those lies lays a foundation that will be hard to undo down the road. Save yourself the extra work by catching little tykes’ little lies and correcting them immediately.

2. Watch the back door.
Dishonesty in our children doesn’t often come barreling through the front door with a big whopper of a lie. It starts small with fudging the facts or omitting key information. But it’s intentionally deceptive—and children know it. When you’re talking with your children, listen intently. That’s how you’ll pick up on the tell-tale signs of a misleading story. When you see them do it, blow the whistle and correct the habit.

3. Practice what you preach.
The only way to teach a life of honesty and integrity is to live one in front of your children. They hear more than you think they do, every word you say on the phone or to your spouse. They’re as able to spot deception as you are. If your children find you acting as if your dishonesty is OK, they’ll do the same. So before you say, “tell them I’m not home,” remember who’s listening.

4. Explain the impact lying has on relationships.
I believe God’s laws always have our best interests at heart. But honesty isn’t just important because it’s the officially-sanctioned right thing to do. It’s important because good relationships are built on trust and trust can’t exist without honesty. If you catch your child lying on Monday, how can you trust him or her on Tuesday? Help your children understand the long-term consequences of dishonesty by letting them suffer some of those consequences now.

5. Stop a lie when you see one coming.
Sometimes, your child will be tempted to play with the facts, like when they’re explaining their actions or faced with the possibility of being disciplined. Before you even ask for the explanation, remind your child that honesty is the standard in your home and that he or she will create a bigger problem by lying.

6. Don’t let the details dictate whether honesty is important.
Sometimes we’re tempted to overlook dishonesty in our children if a lie doesn’t involve something of obvious importance. But a total commitment to honesty in all things only comes about when there are no small lies. Take the time to correct your child, even when the deception seems immaterial.

We are here to help the government have kids in our country with positive behaviours .
Let your kids be a part now.

If you’re looking for concrete ways to show your kids you mean what you say.

4 Concrete Ways to Be Firm With Your Kids

“Just five more minutes, Mom,” my son said without taking his eyes off the TV screen. “It’s not even the fourth quarter.” He was watching a football game, and I knew how much he loved it, but it was time for bed, and a school night, and he’d been having trouble getting up in the morning. So it was time to be firm, or my version of it.

“Seriously, it’s time. Go get ready for bed,” I replied. He didn’t move. “How about this—get ready for bed and then come back down. You can watch a few more minutes.” And he did, but he still watched the entire game and went to bed late. Maybe, like me, you struggle with being firm, and being told “just get tough” doesn’t feel like practical advice. If you’re looking for concrete ways to show your kids you mean what you say, here are 4 ways to be firm and mean it.

1. Firm posture: Think tall.
I’m only 5 feet 3 inches, but it doesn’t matter in the least. You can think tall in posture when you want to be firm with kids. Would a queen or a president ever slouch when giving a public address? Never! Take a lesson from them and stand up straight, take a breath, and think, “I am the adult. I am the leader.” Now deliver your message. This will not only help you look firm but also feel firm from the start.

2. Firm facial expression: Think “laser beam.”
I remember a teacher who, when she got serious, would tilt her chin down just slightly and stare at you like laser beams were coming from her eyes. Whenever she did that, we jumped into action. Eyes like laser beams don’t have to be scary, but they can communicate that you are serious. You mean business. One firm look from Mom can say more than an entire lecture.

3. Firm volume and tone: Think “quiet command.”
The natural way we often get firm is by getting louder and harsher in tone. But if you yell every time you get firm, kids will eventually tune it out or just think you’re being mean. Try the opposite approach and get quieter. The quiet command is one that gets quiet, slow, and serious. This communicates, “I am serious, and I am in control of myself and the situation.”

4. Firm attitude: Think “I will outlast.”
All kids will test and push back on boundaries. It is normal for them to do it. But just like you would with a toddler’s tantrum, you must be ready to outlast them. Take the stance of being prepared for him or her to push back many times. You will not budge physically (don’t walk away), emotionally (don’t show you’re upset or argue), or consequentially (don’t negotiate or give in like I did with the football game). Whatever you say, stick with it and follow through.

To be firm with them is not sin.
