This is a follow up to our Christianity 101 course, so please take it first! In this course we explore how people follow through on their plans to follow Jesus. We cover the Bible, Prayer, Community, Generosity and Service. You’ll be encouraged to take steps to make each of these a part of your life, and to find a community of others who are making the same changes.
The best way to enjoy the course is if you invite a friend, who can listen to the same content as you, so you can discuss the question when you’re back in one place. When you’ve been meeting in a group for a little while, register your group here.

• use distraction, distract your child from the issue causing conflict
• develop your own tarntlu rules to avoid regular arguments
5. Give choices
• being given choices is an important part of a child’s learning to take responsibility
• give choices over issues that are unimportant,
• Which of your toys do you want to take?" and “Do you want to play on the beach or go swimming?"
• giving choices helps to defuse conflict
6. Stay in control
• avoid being dragged into shouting matches our emotional reactions can give children a sense of power over us - like allowing them to press a "big red button" on our chests to see us react. getting angry, chasing them, getting upset
• find a way to give realistic warnings
• don't be manipulated by your child(ren)'s shouting, whining, or tantrums
Question: How can you stay in control of yourself when faced with bad behaviour?
