Establish consistent routines and boundaries from "summary" of The Self-Driven Child by William Stixrud, PhD,Ned Johnson

Consistency is key when it comes to establishing routines and boundaries for children. By setting predictable patterns in their daily lives, children can feel more secure and develop a sense of control over their environment. This can help to reduce anxiety and improve overall well-being. When children know what to expect, they are better able to manage their emotions and behavior. Routines provide structure and stability, giving children a sense of stability and security. This can be especially important during times of change or uncertainty. By following a consistent routine, children are able to develop good habits and learn important life skills. Routines can also help children to prioritize tasks and manage their time effectively. Boundaries are essential for children to learn how to navigate the world around them. By setting clear limits and expectations, parents can help children understand what is acceptable behavior and what is not. Boundaries provide a sense of safety and protection, allowing children to explore and learn without fear of consequences. When boundaries are consistently enforced, children learn to respect rules and develop self-discipline. Consistent routines and boundaries create a framework for children to thrive and grow. They help children to feel secure, build self-confidence, and develop important life skills. By establishing clear expectations and predictable patterns, parents can set their children up for success in all areas of their lives. It is important for parents to be consistent and firm in their approach, while also showing empathy and understanding towards their children's needs. By creating a supportive and nurturing environment, parents can help their children become self-driven individuals who are capable of achieving their full potential.
