Incorporating Tiger Pride's 8 Great Traits at Home:
November - Responsibility
Model responsibility by fulfulling your own obligations to the very best of your ability.
Teach your children a decision-making process. Teach them that before making choices, it is important to examine both the potential effectiveness in achieving a goal and the potential consequences.
Use lists to remind your children of their school and home responsibilities.
Make having privileges contingent upon doing those things for which they are responsible. The words "when you have done what you have to do, then you may do what you want to do" helps children learn to do those things for which they are responsible before they play.
Point out examples of their responsible behaviors. When children show responsibility, describe the behavior and tell them you appreciate what they are doing.
Praise responsibility: "I like the way you handled yourself." "I think it is wonderful that you work to complete your homework on time." "I appreciate that you are doing this task without being reminded a second time." "Thank you for taking care of that on your own." "You took the responsibility upon yourself to do a good job and you did it!"
Give you children responsibilities around the house that are age-appropriate.
