    HOW YOU AS A PARENT CAN HELP YOUR CHILD DEVELOP A LOVE OF READING

     

    Dr. John H. Braccio talks with Dave Akerly on the “Morning Wake-Up With Dave Akerly” radio show, on 10/23/18 on WLNS, 1320 a.m.in Lansing, Michigan about karatay bayan escort HOW YOU AS A PARENT CAN HELP YOUR CHILD DEVELOP A LOVE OF READING. I believe it is safe to say a love of reading is the key to unlocking all the knowledge in the world and making it available for your child. The following are some activities to help your child develop a love for reading: 1. Read to your child from day one or some say even before birth. 2. Find times to read that are comfortable for both of you. 3. To have some predictable times will better guarantee reading always occurs. 4. Read with enthusiasm and joy to model these behaviors that hopefully they will develop. 5. Have a wide variety of reading materials in the house ranging from comic books to classical literature. The availability of e-book readers is becoming more important day by day. 6. Allow your children choices on what they read and do not let your interests interfere with their reading development. Respect their preferences. 7. Encourage your child to be involved in read-a-thons. 8. Point at letters and words on signs encountered. 9. Have your child write book reports and private diaries consistent with their age. 10. Explain vocabulary to help your child understand more quickly as you read. This does not eliminate the need for children to also learn vocabulary on their own. 11. Have the family read the same book and discuss it. 12. Have your child read to you as you pay attention. Three good quotations on reading are: 1.TODAY A READER, TOMORROW A LEADER. Margaret Fuller. THE PERSON WHO DESERVES MOST PITY IS A LONESOME ONE ON A RAINY DAY WHO DOESN’T KNOW HOW TO READ. Benjamin Franklin. 3. ONCE YOU LEARN TO READ,YOU WILL BE FOREVER FREE. Frederick Douglas.

While one can argue wisdom only comes from living your life and learning from the difficulties encountered along the route, it is equally true many persons do not become wise.They sadly become bitter, angry, mersin anamur eskort bayanları envious and learn nothing helpful from their difficulties in life. Those who do learn lessons from their difficulties and implement them become wise and can help others not encounter the same difficulties. Some good quotations on wisdom are as follows: 1.TURN YOUR WOUNDS INTO WISDOM. Oprah Winfrey. 2 THE UNEXAMINED LIFE IS NOT WORTH LIVING. Socrates. 3. THE FOOL DOTH THINK HE IS WISE, BUT THE WISE MAN KNOWS HIMSELF TO BE A FOOL. Shakespeare. 4. KNOWING YOURSELF IS THE BEGINNING OF ALL WISDOM. Aristotle. 5. ANY FOOL CAN KNOW. THE POINT IS TO UNDERSTAND. Albert Einstein

    DEVELOPMENT OF HEALTHY BOUNDARIES

Braccio talks with Dave Akerly on the “Morning Wake-Up With Dave Akerly” radio show, on 10/9/18 on WLNS, 1320 a.m.in Lansing, Michigan anamur eskort kızlar about DEVELOPMENT OF HEALTHY BOUNDARIES. A difficult mental health task for many human beings is how to have boundaries that allow us to not be so rigid we destroy or severely hamper relationships or have boundaries so weak that people take advantage of us. To get the middle ground that leads to healthy boundaries in relationships is clearly more difficult than it seems on the face of it. Some key factors for healthy boundaries would be as follows: 1. LEARN “NO” IS A FULLY LEGITIMATE CHOICE. 2. BE REASONABLE. 3. ALLOW OTHERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE TRUSTED. 4. DO NOT BE SELFISH. 5. DO NOT BE DEMANDING. 6. DUMP PEOPLE WHO DO NOT RESPECT YOUR BOUNDARIES.

Behind the false walls of greatness and superiority lives insecure persons of low self-esteem and vulnerability to even minimal criticism. Narcissists use the following techniques to glorify themselves: CONSTANT UNREASONABLE PRAISE OF SELF…GET ANGRY WHEN CRITICIZED…CONSTANT SEEKER OF ATTENTION…GREAT JEALOUSY OF OTHERS PERSONALLY AND THEIR ACHIEVEMENTS… CONSTANT MANIPULATION OF OTHERS. Unfortunately, these techniques are often used at the expense of persons who care for them and may even love them.

    READING TO INFANTS AND VERY YOUNG CHILDREN IS CRITICAL FOR FUTURE HIGH LEVELS OF READING LITERACY

    Dr. John H. Braccio talks with Dave Akerly on the “Morning Wake-Up With Dave Akerly” radio show, on 7/24/18 on WLNS, 1320 a.m.in Lansing, Michigan about a follow up to our segment ON kocasinan escort READING last week. The topic is: READING TO INFANTS AND VERY YOUNG CHILDREN IS CRITICAL FOR FUTURE HIGH LEVELS OF READING LITERACY. The more words parents use when talking to their 8-month-old infant the greater vocabulary the child will have at age 3. The well-known Hart-Ridley Study documented that low-income children hear as many as 30 million less words than higher income homes in that short time period. That is shocking and partially explains the later literacy problems of so many low-income children. Reading out loud to your infant encourages language development. Children who fall behind sadly often fall behind in critical reading skills that are never fully made up. A definition of Reading Literacy is as follows: READING LITERACY IS THE ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND READING MATERIALS IN A WAY TO PULL OUT RELEVANT INFORMATION AND BE ABLE TO ANALYZE AND USE IT AS IS NEEDED AND DESIRED FOR WORK AND/OR LEISURE PURPOSES

    BE REALISTIC WHEN MAKING A MAJOR CHANGE IN YOURSELF

    Dr. John H. Braccio talks with Dave Akerly on the “Morning Wake-Up With Dave Akerly” radio show, on 6/19/18 on WLNS, 1320 a.m.in Lansing, Michigan about BE REALISTIC WHEN anamur eskort bayan MAKING A MAJOR CHANGE IN YOURSELF. As I could say-“Old habits die slowly”. Be aware it took you a long time to develop ingrained habits that in effect are a part of who you are. For example, to stop being sarcastic is harder than you would think if you have a habit of making insulting comments to others. This is particularly true if you think you are clever and witty. This would be equally true with a commitment to complete one thing before going to another if this is how you function. In fact, change can be hard for a myriad of self-change goals. The key is to clearly spell out the desired change, plan a strategy, move forward, change course as needed, and be aware a failure is just one battle and not the end of your self-help change war. So many people I have worked with over the decades have not clearly defined the problem and are not realistic on what needs to be done over time to make the desired personal change. A good quotation by Will Durant is as follows: “WE ARE WHAT WE REPEATEDLY DO. EXCELLENCE, THEN IS NOT ONE ACT, BUT A HABIT.

Depression can result from many causes in addition to chemical. Included are loneliness, death of loved ones, chronic illness, shame, poor self-esteem, substance abuse, financial loss, PTSD, and history of abuse or trauma.
