Quick Tips To Help You Parent – Getting Your Child Up In The Morning
Question
I am constantly worn out from yelling at my son to get up in the morning. He waits to the last minute to be ready and them blames me for his being late. What can I do to change this nightmare I live every single school day?
Answer
The key is to change the routine in your house and quit yelling and pleading with your son. You want the focus and responsibility off you and on him. This will be very hard for you to do because this is an ingrained pattern of interaction you and your son have developed. You each are splendid actors who have learned your roles perfectly! You must have faith that you can be effective without the useless frustration and even anger.
The following is the beginning of a more peaceful morning for you and your son:
I would suggest that you let your son know times are changing. Let him know you have bought an alarm clock that will go off five minutes after you call him. This then puts some responsibility on him to turn off the alarm and get up. You then can say you are going to get ready and make breakfast. This lets him know you will be busy while he gets up and gets ready. You also can say his breakfast will be ready and he can eat before he needs to go to school. This lets him know there is a benefit for him getting up. He can eat breakfast and be ready to leave on time.
This is not a perfect suggestion but then nothing on this earth is. With that said, this suggestion or a similar one can be helpful and has been various times I have suggested it.
You will need to be patient when implementing this strategy or any other I will be giving you in the future. The key is to take yourself out of the fighting and put a routine in place.
