How to Stop Doing EVERYTHING

Washing dishes through hidden, bitter tears is not how you want to end the day.  However, since it's the only moment you get to yourself you take your time, even though it’s past your bedtime. Bedtime is such a fluid phrase for you, it doesn’t actually mean the same thing day to day, even though you’d prefer it to. But that would take mountains (of laundry) getting up and putting themselves away. It would take high school papers being turned in on time so you can correct them before 10pm.  It would take you being more consistent in what you ask of them and you’re just too tired to fight their negative attitudes, especially after battling to wake them up to even start the day at a decent hour. Every. Single. Day. Instead of beating yourself up for how it’s been going, how you didn’t do it ‘better’ in the past (which is why, you tell yourself, they are the way they are right now), and drowning in a sinkful of suds and discouraged tears because it’s all on you, I would like to invite you to listen to today’s podcast episode: How to Stop Doing Everything for Your Teens. Because today I’m going to lay down some truth about what you’re currently doing and why you do what you do. I’m going to give you a glimpse into where that leads if it continues.  I’m also going to give you some practical things to do, including actual phrases you can use, if they feel good to you to try, with your teens to stop doing everything for your teens (and kids of all ages really) and start becoming the adult you hope they can become someday.
