Question & Answer
Q: My child is only 4, but I am already seeing signs of “bullying” on the playground. What are some tactics for preventing my child from being bullied, or preventing him/her from bullying other children?
A: First, it’s important to be extremely mindful about how you, and other adults and caregivers, are speaking to and treating your children. They are watching your every move and if you are speaking harshly or in any way “bullying” them, or anyone else around you, they are going to be more apt to bully others. Or, to be bullied by others.

Delight in Your Little Ones
I believe that one of the most important things you can do for your children is to spaciously and genuinely delight in them.
Smile with your whole face, eyes and all.
Listen with all of your senses, and your heart.
Give them your full, love-filled, awe driven, everything is a-ok between us attention.
Even if it’s just a few minutes, or even moments, a day.

Video 2: Parenting the Triune Brain, Part 2
Thanks Adam Redmond Butler for inspiring this video.
Unfortunately, the image quality isn’t great, Gil Garcia I’m going to need a little help with that. However, I really like how my drums sounds so I’m posting it anyway. This phase of the experiment is about courage and quantity over quality. Enjoy.
