Comment on DO YOU KNOW HOW TO DOUGIE? by JEREMY

Leadership books will teach that the more “connected” you are to the people that you lead, the more influence you have with them.

So the more connecting points you have with kids, the stronger your influence.

Disciple actually becomes easier when you have fun with your kids. Ang alam ko lang na Dougie, yung Howser M.D. =) 80s yeah!

A friend of mine posted in her status about her 5-year old son (1 of my son’s bestfriends) asking her to teach him how to do the dougie…that really got me thinking….

I think we all start with that goal…to be the fun mom, too, but sometimes, we lose track, don’t we? I know I do at times. Great blog, mommy Jenn!

Hi, Ate Jenn! I read your blog at just the right time, ’cause the day after you posted it, a similar incident happened with me and one of my kids. I would have been torn between letting the incident slide (’cause it was early in the morning, we were on our way to school and I didn’t want to start the day with a “heavy” feeling for both of us) and dealing with it promptly, BUT I clearly remembered what you shared, so I chose the latter. The realization that the blessing is theirs when they honor the Lord had such a great impact!

I also remembered what you shared during the parenting seminar at the Fort last year – that when we correct our kids, we should tell them what the Lord says about it, and that we should quote the Word (for God’s Word is living and powerful). The conviction is truly the work of God’s living Word and the Spirit, never by our attempts at guilt-trip or emotional blackmail. So I reminded my child of what the Lord says about honoring the parents.. Nakakaiyak magdisiplina, mahirap at masakit sa puso, but when we know why we need to do it, then the heaviness is replaced by peace and hope from God.

Thank you for sharing your heart and helping us in our own journey of parenthood…

Blessings abounding!

We watched the show last December and my daughter who’s 10, became an instant fan of Janina. Now she’s wondering what Janina’s schedule is for the extension because she’s insisting on watching again. I promised that if she keeps her grades up this trimester, she can bring her ninang to watch it. Can you post the schedule? Thanks and congratulations on a great performance, Janina!

Hi Jenn. I’ve always admired your consistency and conviction when it comes to discipline. Thanks for always sharing your heart and your experiences. Je and I are learning valuable nuggets of wisdom on how we can raise godly kids. Keep on blogging.

Hi Spanish Pinay! I checked out your blogsite and your toddler is so adorable! I’m sure you are enjoying every minute with her!

Regarding your question, my son was very sad when I told him we couldn’t go to the toy store anymore but he also humbly apologized and asked for my forgiveness. Since my husband and I started disciplining our kids early, and we would always explain the reason why, they understand why we do it. There were rare times when they would react violently, but that’s another whole blog to explain how we would deal with it.

Thank you for your openness to learn from another mom. All the things that my husband and I have practiced at home are really things we ourselves have learned from others too.

The topic of discipline is a lengthy one and we usually spend one afternoon in our parenting seminars to talk about it. If you are interested to read up more on it, you might want to check out my past blogs and let me know what you think:
