This is often done out of concern, but can lead to children feeling oppressed and defeated. The children may feel suffocated and unable to express themselves in their home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Lenient Parent<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 On the opposite spectrum we have the lenient parent. While some parents have a more friendship-like approach to their childrearing, this style of parenting can also be detrimental to a child\u2019s wellbeing. Children may feel insecure about their relationship with their parents. If there are no rules or irregular rules in their household, they may start feeling emotionally unsafe and confused about their own actions and identity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Remember, the more consistent a parent is, the more cooperative the child will be.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"858\" src=\"https:\/\/stillwaterscounsel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/home-rules-2-1024x858-1.png\" alt=\"A family of three enjoying a sunny day at a park.

Well, let me tell you about my 3 House Rules. The 3 House Rules are respect, responsibility, safety. The great thing about the 3 House Rules is that anyone can implement it. When established and adhered to consistently, can lead to a more harmonious household.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Here are the steps:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, set up a family meeting. Get a whiteboard or a large piece of paper and pen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Write the word \u201cRESPECT\u201d and under it, take turns writing down rules that pertain to respect. It is important to allow everyone a chance to pitch in a rule regarding respect. For example, parents may expect children to not yell at them. An example for children could mean they request no spankings as a form of punishment. While you may think your children\u2019s demand may be ridiculous, please keep in mind that your children are taking this moment to be\u00a0vulnerable, so let them speak. Healthy compromises can be made. Allowing the children the ability to set reasonable rules for the parents is a crucial part of the process and a major contributor to the success of the house rules.<br>After you\u2019re done with RESPECT, draw another word, \u201cRESPONSIBILITY\u201d on the board\/paper. What does responsibility mean for your family? Even young family members can partake in responsible behaviors and tasks.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/childdevelopmentinfo.com\/chores\/the-ultimate-list-of-age-appropriate-chores\/#gs.oau4ve\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HERE<\/a>\u00a0is a list of age-appropriate chores for ages two and up. Parents may expect children to be responsible for completing chores and getting good grades, while children may expect parents to fulfill rules like not breaking promises and keeping them safe. This can be tailored to each family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"859\" src=\"https:\/\/stillwaterscounsel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/home-rules-3-1024x859-1.png\" alt=\"A family of four sits closely on a couch, engaged in reading a book together. The group includes two adults and two children, all wearing casual clothing. They appear to be in a cozy living room setting.\" class=\"wp-image-462\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stillwaterscounsel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/home-rules-3-1024x859-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/stillwaterscounsel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/home-rules-3-1024x859-1-300x252.png 300w, https:\/\/stillwaterscounsel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/home-rules-3-1024x859-1-768x644.png 768w, https:\/\/stillwaterscounsel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/home-rules-3-1024x859-1-700x587.png 700w, https:\/\/stillwaterscounsel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/home-rules-3-1024x859-1-250x210.png 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, but not least by any means, is safety. Yep, write \u201cSAFETY\u201d in big letters. This one may cause some discomfort to verbalize but will clearly communicate what is and is not acceptable in the family. What are safety measures that need to be addressed in your family? For young children that could mean not hitting their sibling. As a teen it could mean promising to not sneak out at night or drinking and driving.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To wrap up the 3 House Rules, the last thing to discuss is consequences. Not adhering to the first two principles should be communicated as a lack of cohesion in the family, which can break down trust. E.g. \u201cWhen you don\u2019t do your chores, it lets down the other members of the house.\u201d Out of the 3 house rules listed above, breaking rules of safety should hold a higher consequence if violated. If safety is breached, clear consequences need to be communicated and followed through.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Noticing a pattern?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you collaborate as a family and communicate openly about the values you care about, the stronger your bonds will be. The goal of these exercises is to teach children to be working members of society. Most children will be good community members if given the opportunity. We want to strengthen bonds, not&nbsp;weaken&nbsp;them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some extra pointers for each age group that you may find useful:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Young children<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk through feelings with your child. Let them open up to you. If they act up and need a time out, please keep the time out to a minimum. Generally, one minute per year (up to age 7). After 5 years old, the parent can have a time out from the child or go to a different room. At this age, you can say, \u201cI need some space from you right now.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teenagers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When punishing teenagers, a general rule of thumb is never to ground for more than two weeks. Spending more than two weeks being grounded can possibly be detrimental to a teenager\u2019s health. An even better solution is to think about a teenager\u2019s \u201ccurrency\u201d for rewards and punishment. Knowing the&nbsp;love languages&nbsp;of your family members is a powerful tool. What may work for one family member, may not work for another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Older children\/adult children<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At this age, if adult children are still living in the household the relationship between parent and child should be on more equal footing. Instead of top down authority, think of the relationship to be more like coworkers. Contributing to the household routine and pitching in for chores is essential for a harmonious household. Contributions can be in the form of financial (paying rent\/bills), labor (garden work) or acts (doing errands for the family). Safety at this age generally pertains to actions for adult children to keep themselves and their family members safe. At the time of writing this blog, the COVID-19 pandemic is still happening and many families are contending with how to balance safety and socializing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What are your house rules?
