I used the technique that Peterson described. When my kids decided they would behave, I said. "Great I am glad you are here!" And if they did not come back, after a few minutes, I went to them, that I missed them and I hope they are ready to join soon. One time, one of my kids told me he was not ready to come out. I said OK, I hope you will be ready soon. The final time out was my child acting up, I told them that they need to go to their room until they are ready to behave and he said, I am ready now. I said OK, that's great! He thought he discovered how not to have timeouts. As result, he immediately starting behaving whenever I gave him the look. This is the transition from timeouts to "the look".

Rules without relationship leads to rebellion. Relationship without rules leads to resentment. Once a while children WILL push the boundaries to explore what their selfish nature can get. But if they do it all the time, you might not have a relationship with your kid to begin with. Most of the children, their love language are quality time and touch and from time to time give them word of affirmation (if you read 7 love language, you know what i'm referring to). To discipline is to love, parents who lack discipline don't love their kids.

I was watching an old Q and A from Dr. Peterson a number of years ago. Dr. Peterson got in a bind with technology and his son, Julian, came in to help him. The way Dr. Peterson looked up at him with such glowing pride and love and the way Julian patted his Dad gently on the shoulder said everything about their relationship. Dr. Peterson’s excellent relationship with his daughter Mikhaila is much more public. But for some reason, it was that moment with Julian that touched me deepest. Whatever the two of them did in raising their children, they did good.

Minimum necessary rules. And rules need to be flexible. I remember when my oldest son was 13 and he yelled "You don't love me" at me during an argument so I took him outside, waved vaguely at the outside world and said "This is where all the people I don't love live, You're welcome back when you realize that I do love you.? and went inside and closed the door.

Rules being flexible can actually be a huge mistake. If kids learn that "no doesn't always mean no" for example, that's when you create a monster that will always argue and beg. The point of minimum necessary rules is that you can be consistent and stable for your kids while letting them be kids.

They didn't get a pass, and they certainly heard about it, but they weren't punished for it. I learned that to earn respect you must be respectful and taught them that. I was brought up by a strict and regimented a-hole and I rebelled fiercely and went out of my way to smash every stupid rule he put in place. Pounding your chest and saying "My way or the highway" is a stupid parent trick.. One that has resulted in thousands of kids becoming homeless. I never spoke to my father again after I was 21 and that after 5 years of silence, and he died 14 years later. Too late for my liking. As Twain said "I won't attend his funeral, but I approve of it". I wanted a better relationship with my kids. When I became a father I (and my wife of course) laid out the ground rules and ended up having very little problems with our kids. In fact, my example above was the worst event! Both boys are in their 30s now and call me for advice. I'm rather proud of that.

i love this. having kids, you learn so much about yourself. it's a hard thing to do to discipline your kids so that they learn some common decency and simultaneously show them that you love them no matter what.

The last 30 seconds hit me hard. My mother is like this, there was always something wrong and she started fights with my dad all the time. But we were never allowed to mention what the fight was about or talk about it, she always acted like nothing happened the next day. It broke me in so many ways. My husbands stepfather was the same. So now when my husband and I disagree we sort out the problem immediately. Its nice to be in a home where you can relax and talk openly.

I noticed that the house is much calmer if my mother has some help around the house. I wanted to help her for a while but school took up a lot of my time and was very stressful on top of that. Its amazing what a feeling of peace in the house will do. I can rest in my soul. Sounds a bit silly but thats what it feels like. It sort of spreads out to everyone in the house. It lifts everyone spirits and makes even the bad moments more bearable.

Glad you matured. Sometimes it's also the thought, that counts. If help to mom always comes last, it means your love for her is a selfish, taking one. If you can delay some wants of your own just to show your love and appreciation for her by doing even a little thing, that indeed will lift up everyone's spirit. She will feel appreciated, you too and that happiness spreads out. Be it only 15 minutes of help 4 times a week. You see something pile up and you don't ask, but just do it. Why ask? It's obvious it needs doing anyway. Do the little things, that count and once in a while do some bigger things to. (Writing this mostly for anyone reading along and wondering how to get that peace and joy in the house.)

One thing my parents did when raising me that seemed to work well was to impose the importance of honesty on me. They made a deal that as long as I told them the truth, they wouldn’t get angry at me. We both held up our ends and I turned out pretty well.

@@1GlowingJar Discover what you want in life, and get after it. Don't compare yourself to anyone else and don't create a negative self-image. Once you discover who you are, if you haven't already, then you need to design your ideal life. Think about what you want your career to be, all your relationships, hobbies, even the clothes you wear. This must be written down. Then, make an annual or monthly schedule implementing those things. Eliminating your flaws is best done by creating your ideal life, so you'd hit 2 birds with 1 stone. It's one thing to just quit one bad habit, but that's not what you should do.

6:01 - "Who are you to impose your rules on your child?" "Well, I'm his parent." "But what gives you that right?" "...It isn't exactly my right, it is my responsibility." and, my favourite part: "It's not like I want to put my child on the steps...It's not pleasurable. I don't want the kid to be a squalling, wretched reprobate that everyone hates." I often tell my kids that this is not fun for me, when I have to enforce a rule. That it is for their benefit, not mine.

I'm on a journey to being a better father.... Thank you Jordan!

"Good parenting equals working yourself out of a job" - Jack Spirko The number of rules you have for your children should decline as time goes on, as they've learned to discipline and instill rules upon themselves.

Jordan Peterson: the godfather of an entire generation of civilized children

Every bit of this boils down to simple kindness. When you can be kind, you can come back.

This philosophy is spot on. As a young kid I needed less rules. The environment was too restrictive. Especially the school I was on was really dogmatic and rigid. It killed my creativeness and demonized my search for boundaries and truth. Didn't know at the time off course. So I rebelled hard against all authorities.

I'm a solo mum of twin toddlers... It has taken me many years to feel like I've evolved sufficiently to check my own blind spots in order to parent effectively without a co-parent constantly checking on me. I do hope my close friends will do this for me if I ever lose my way, and i still hope to find a co-parent down the track (althought that's a whole other ball-game letting someone else in). In the meantime, my mum has been criticising that I'm too easy going with my boys, that i let too many things go, she's more old-school than i am, wants me to set strict rules for every minutia of pragmatic life, strict times for everything etc. I wanted to do some research on softer vs. more authoritative parenting just incase I'm doing them a misservice by being more lenient, allowing their preferences to alter our schedules, but my gut feeling has been that developing a solid deep loving relationship of loving kindness and respect with my children is my best chance of shaping who they will become, rather than asserting my authority over them when they are too little to fight back... i stumbled on this video and I'm stoked that my concept of parenting is virtually identical to Jordan's. As minimal interference as required for my children to learn how to behave like decent human beings, strong, swift responses when they do misbehave and then immediate and unfaltering love and forgiveness as soon as they are ready to behave again. I put my stronger willed toddler in his cot for time out after giving him a few chances to correct his misbehaviour without my intervention and i tell him to let me know when he's calmed down and is ready to behave properly (let me change his nappy, say sorry to his brother etc) and it's truly a beautiful moment, when he's let out his steam, ridden the wave of his emotions and then lifts his arms up asking for me, and crawls gratefully back into mummy's loving arms knowing that all is forgiven and forgotten. What better way to shape good behaviour than offering all the love in the world when your child has worked through their emotions? If they stay up later ocassionally, or have a bit of screen time when I'm exhausted, I think we'll be right.

I grew up in what i believe to be loving family but extremely strict parents..obedience was most important to them.... they pride themselves as successful at parenting, i got a good life, independent, got higher education, traveled and lived abroad.... but as much as i love them, i don't miss them.... i was happy to be out..... and barely feel the need to be with them.... which makes me wonder how good of a job did they really do.

Your content is an invaluable resource for parents on the journey of raising children. As someone deeply committed to nurturing young minds, I'm truly inspired by your insights. Raising children is an incredible responsibility, and it's our duty to help them grow into compassionate, honest, and patient individuals. In the words of Fred Rogers, 'The greatest gift you ever give is your honest self.' Our children learn by example, and it's our actions that mold their character. 'Patience is not the ability to wait, but how you act while you're waiting,' says Joyce Meyer. Instilling this virtue in our children is a gift that keeps on giving. Teaching honesty is equally vital. 'Honesty is a very expensive gift; don't expect it from cheap people,' warns Warren Buffett. Our role as parents is to show our children the worth of integrity. Keep sharing your invaluable wisdom, as it resonates with all of us striving to raise responsible, respectful, and kind-hearted kids.

His wife is so respectful, she had opportunities to interrupt him while he was speaking to share something but she decided to let him talk all he wanted without one interruption because the question was for him and she saw no necessity to add anything else. She is so respectful and professional

A yt channel I love watching is Joseph Carter the mink man. He takes his children on the hunt, shows them the meaning of life and death, talks to them like a little adult, he is very respectful to them. They are going to grow up as very mentally strong human beings.

Yeah, my wife and I have no clue what we're doing, guess we'll find out how we did in about 16 years... When our toddler throws a tantrum, we've noticed that, unlike an adult, he's not mad at us, not really, he's mad at what's happening, which is totally fair when this whole life thing is new to you. So what we do, is swallow our anger and frustration, and keep our cool, and pretend we're on his side. We'll take him to his room and hold onto him as he struggles to leave. Saying things like, it's ok, we understand, deep breaths, you got this. And after awhile, we can legit see him trying to get a hold of himself, and as he actually calms down and stops, and becomes capable of speech again, we tell him good job, emotions can be tough but you wrangled them real good, how do you feel now? And usually we can talk about the situation briefly, and then he's happy as a clam and we move on. It is real hard on us though, wish I knew how long I could expect this phase to last.

This is great. I apply the minimum effective dose rule to all other areas of my life and have not even considered doing it to my discipline/parenting approach.

The understanding I used was that there is X amount of capital toward having my kids do what I say. Once that is gone, the kids will not obey/respect what I say. So whenever a situation came up - I weighed out whether to use some of that capital knowing it that it was limited.

​@Hoodwinked Bunny difference in temperament, personality is a soul thing not a raised thing, altho it can change their decisions it won't change who they are just what they like or dislike or what they get anxiety for, some people are born sweet and kind, some are born as psychopaths, it's a luck of the draw you never know who you're gonna get, and who they will become.

My mother used to have temper tantrums, completely out of control, sometimes in public to. It's true, that's something that will scar you for life as a kid. I used to resent my mother for it but I have let it go some years ago. Now I have kids of my own, still toddlers, but I have learnt to control my own temperament, or I can recognize fairly quickly and adjust. I consider raising kids part of higher purpose so I won't let them succumb to this. Keep your head level and your own (negative) emotions in check with them, it's easy to unwillingly condition them to undesirable behavior if you haven't sorted yourself out.

Thanks

If you don't forgive someone's genuine apology, it means you aren't a reasonable person.

My whole young parental life I was resentful of being the disciplinary instead of my husband. Now, after our divorce (we were young and stupid) I'm thankful for it. Apparently him and his GF bought an extra mirror for the hallway so the boys don't fight over the bathroom in the morning. When I heard this I thought to myself "can't relate." We three share ONE bathroom. We discuss the morning rotation each night before bed in case any adjustments need to be made. The schedule is LAW and bickering isn't allowed. We are a unit with a common goal. I also respectfully spoke to the ex about that being total BS. They KNOW how to act. Basically, I ratted the boys out. I really think discipline as a child helps educate the parent on what works for the individual child as well as the unit like Dr. Peterson mentioned. Teenagers are rough but you at least need a foundation by then. That includes being viewed as an authority figure as well. When I was a little girl my dad compared it to raising a puppy. A well trained puppy makes a happy dog that you can bring places and do things with. My eldest and I now have excellent communication. My ex was upset that I was the first to find out about the GF. Because I was the discipline. We have a foundation of respect. We are functional enough to engage in conversation now. My biggest concern is them thinking it's acceptable to act up at their father's. By act up I mean things like fighting of course. They're honors students, generally respectful, and don't get into trouble.

the rules in my house growing up were pretty minimal; 1. if we call you home, you come home. 2. violence between siblings or toward parent will be punished severely, spanking, solitude (locked in your room without any entertainment like games or tv), and you WILL apologize to whomever you wronged. 3. in our own judgement, if a situation became too dangerous we leave by any means necessary (physically walk out, call parents for a pickup, or if its a scenario like we are punched by a bully then we defend ourselves and get away ASAP)

I think you might be demonizing violence a little too much. Those are good rules IF your kids are enrolled in martial arts so they can feel comfortable with the world of violence. Otherwise it might be a bit too much sheltering. To me, harmless fighting between brothers as long as it doesn't get bitter and truly dangerous is alright. Say they're playing basketball, accuse each other of cheating, and have a little dust up. But it depends on the context

​​@@barfo281 Not really. Because if the kid knows he's wrong, forcing him to apologize means that he has to learn to put his ego down for a minute and practice making peace. You can never be good at making peace until you practice it, even if it's somewhat fake. The problem is if a kid thinks he's right (and might be). Then you can't force them to apologize. But when it's clear cut, and the kid isn't apologizing not because he doesn't mean it but because he is angry and kind of stuck in an ego loop, forced apology works like a charm.

@@barfo281 i 100% agree forced apologies are meaningless, that was just the rule. I punched someone (non family) in the face who deserved it (see rule 3) and my parents still forced me to go to his house in front of his parents and him (with a massive black eye) and apologize. To this day i don’t feel sorry and would do it again. My parents, like most parents, say one thing but if it affects them socially they are cowards and try to save face.

He's got a way with word few people do nowadays. Peterson is absolutely right when he describe the importance of articulate speech. I think me learning English by reading mostly books from old, or long-gone, authors has helped me gain a level of expertise I couldn't have gained otherwise. Few authors, or speakers for that matter, push the envelope now, because it's not expedient, and tends to lose the attention of people who have, in their minds at least, better things to do than listen quietly.

The goal should be to raise independant adults who will not be gullible and led down moronic paths.

Perhaps it's a good idea to get married for real. Makes sense for having children.

Looking forward to raising my kids! God fill my cup each day

I absolutely LOVE JORDAN PETERSON. I KNOW EVERYONE IS IN TITLED TO THEIR OPINION BUT, HES NEVER ONCE TOLD PARENTS TO HIT THEIR KIDS JUST TO SIMPLY BE STURN AND STICK WITH IT. AS IF HES WRONG. I MEAN LOOK AT THE MAJORITY OF US. FD UP BECAUSE WE UNRESOLVED ISSUES FROM OUR PAST, GOT TOLD TO KEEP YOUR FEELINGS TO YOURSELF AND SO FORTH. ANYWAYS. I LOVE HIS TACTICS. IF I WOULD OF KNEW ABOUT HIM SOONER WHEN MY KIDS WERE LITTLE. ID DEFINITELY WOULD OF TRIED HIS METHODS.

I’m glad we’re going in the right direction with our son & daughter

What’s the name of the full talk

Where is this full interview?

I've just finished Exodus ( Naming) which I found extremely valuable and for which I can't find words to express the gratitude and love I feel for what you, all of you have done there. But then, I found Dragons Monsters and Men on Daily Wire and it's right on time because the teachers are having a strike and watching Dragons Monsters and Men is what I'm going to do with my two boys. By the way, thank you for the lecture you held in România, me, my wife, my two boys ( 12 and 15 years old) and some of my friends were there. 🙏🤝

Parenting is really not easy. More reason I published books on amazon on it to guide parents on how to raise their kids the way they want. Christine Allen is my name, Thanks

I use the 10 second count down on mine. And the youngest will test what the minimum level of compliance is. I'll say 5, he'll stare me down. I'll say 4 he'll make a slight change towards compliance and so on. Faster tempo was the cure for that.

Redneck parenting 😂

Tour around the US telling other people how to do it- thanks Jordan!

We could never tolerate lying or cruelty, so I guess those were the basic rules for our children. The other aspect though was that there was always the possibility to move forward from any disagreement or wrong doing, through acknowledgement, understanding and forgiveness. Mistakes are part of the learning process.

I am the mother of two children who are now over 40. We made a lot of mistakes but and I did scream too much. I never expected to be a full time stay at home mom and then a homeschooling mom. I had no good examples of parents. But my husband said that was better than ice coldness since it was over soon. Anyway several things I did right IMHO. First if our son was flailing or attempting to take on his father. (kid 2 yo Father 6'4") My husband would hold him in a gentle bear hug until he could calm down. Although it was somewhat hilarious to see my husband holding him away with a hand on our son's head as he windmilled his arms. We did not make our kids say they were sorry. And if they said it we asked what they were sorry for. I also learned that for the most part mediating in there fights was a useless endeavor. We told them it was their job to get along. If they were squabbling, we made them separate until they were ready to get along. I never know what one of them did to provoke the other so unless there was imminent danger, blood or disfigurement, I would tell them to separate until they got along. All the toys belong to me so if they were fighting over one of my toys, I took it away. Once I sent them to their beds. At this point we had a two bedroom house and they shared a room with bunk beds, so I couldn't send them to their rooms. A little later I peeked in and they were holding hands. The other important do not make rules based on your opinions. For example do not forbid your child to wear red because you don't like it. Unless there is a moral, ethical, safety, illegal reason, don't make a rule.

The best discipline instrument according to Mama, was the "Chancla" 😂😂 👡 Thanks Dr. Peterson for your words.

I personally think, a parent should lead by example how they want their kids to be like, when you give rules they will break them. I have seen it so many times, but when you act a certain way. You set an example to them. I stand to be corrected.

Minimum amount of rules and force, brilliant

I'm going to bookmark this and listen to a few times a week. So quotable lol

I've never had to fight a 2-year-old as Dr. Peterson suggests. But I do have a story about a tussle with a 5-year-old that went very much in my favor. I'm a Taekwondo instructor. I had opened the school before class, and there were two brothers that were just bugging each other nonstop. After about the fifth warning, I told them, "If either of you does that again, you have to sit out next to your mom until class starts." They both agreed. For about a minute. Then the younger brother was bugging his older brother again. I told him to sit out. He just looks at me smugly and says, "No." So I picked him up and carried him out. He started crying. His mom backed me up. A few minutes after class started, he was over it and had a good time.

Oh, to be a man of virtue, With compassion in his soul, To live a life of honor, And to make his heart his goal. To treat his fellow man with kindness, And to love his neighbor true, To be a friend to all who need him, And to help them see it through. For virtue is the key to happiness, And compassion is its guide, To live a life of love and kindness, And to never leave one's side. So let us strive to live with virtue, And to treat each other well, For in the end, it is our kindness, That will make our story tell. And when the final day has come, And we look back on our life, May we be proud of all we've done, And the love we shared in strife. For there is no greater joy in life, Than to be a man of virtue true, To live a life of love and kindness, And to make our hearts anew. Dedicated to jordan and t Campbell mbt
