Oh Boy oh boy, these BOYS! | POF63

This episode is to help you with all the men and boys in your life!   In today’s day and age, boys are more misunderstood than ever, and are at a disadvantage.  You may not believe it, but it’s true! Life as a parent of a boy can be challenging and confusing.  They have so much energy when they’re young only for them to grind to an almost standstill, in their tween and teen years where we’re seeing them get hooked on screens and gaming. We used to call boys who developed a bit slower, “late bloomers” and now we call them, “lost causes.”  The fact is that our boys ARE slower to develop, the do have DIFFERENT brains and it’s important we understand these differences so we give them the best chance to thrive! My guest, Janet Allison, is a boy expert and explains the keys to unlocking our boys (and the men in our lives)!  When you better understand your boy, his challenges, and his opportunities, you’ll experience new and better possibilities for you and your family! Check the “From the Podcast” section for a free guide on boys from Janet!   About Janet Allison Janet Allison, a lifelong learner with a passion for teaching, Boys Alive! was born out of her realization that school is mostly set up for girls to succeed. With over 20 years of experience coaching parents, mentoring teachers, and working with professionals, the Portland, Oregon local travels both virtually and in real-time to help adults recognize and understand boys.

Parents! We CAN change the world, starting with the way we're parenting our future. Up to this point in history, children have been seen as less than and parented in a way that uses power over a child. Most of us were parented in this way but there is a shift in thinking about the way we raise our kids. Parents don’t feel good about using shame, blame, criticism, punishments, and even rewards, to get their kids to listen. Parents are wanting a different way because they know from their own childhoods this type of parenting hurts and leaves us with scars we take with us through our adulthood. Each one of my episodes is designed to help you navigate the difficult journey of parenting but in a way that is more peaceful and intentional. I’ll show you how to get your kids to listen and cooperate without yelling, punishments and rewards. I’ll show you how to understand your own feelings and those of your kids. My intention is to bring you to a place where you feel connected with your kids and yourself (we often get lost when we become parents!). Tune in weekly for all the inside tips, tools and tricks I teach my private clients to help you build the family you always wanted, and to become the parent you always envisioned you would be. I promise to provide you with fun and entertaining content that will leave you seeing your kids and your reactions in a whole new light! Please make sure to share the episodes that give you goosebumps, and leave you feeling inspired! I am always grateful for every person who subscribes, leaves a review and rates my podcast 5 stars.
