\"Video:<\/a><\/p>\n

Welcome to another Wondering Wednesday A\/V. Today\u2019s episode is a V\u2014video!<\/p>\n

In this video, I show parents how to use our new \u201cConsequence Pies\u201d ebook\/download (one of last month\u2019s freebies!). However, if you do not have the Consequence Pies product, stay with me!<\/strong><\/p>\n

The methodology in this download (available here<\/strong> <\/a>at our store) can be used with or without the product, and I explain that protocol in this video! (Plus, you could make your own pies easily after watching the video.)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The idea behind the Consequence Pies is to take control of negative routine behaviors (as opposed to one of the Four D\u2019s—check out that product here<\/strong><\/a>) that are developing or that have developed by putting the outcome back in your child\u2019s hands\u2014while giving grace and \u201cchances\u201d as needed.<\/p>\n

Watch the first part closely\u2014there are things that must be done on the parents\u2019 part before using this approach: training, rewarding, follow through, and more. But once all of that is done, it is time for the child to decide \u201cyes, I am going to do my homework every day before computer time\u201d or \u201cyes, I am going to take out the trash like I am supposed to every day\u201d\u2014or suffer consequences (that he chooses ahead of time) for not following through on that routine behavior that I have been taught.<\/p>\n

Consequence Pies can be used to help your children learn to develop character in routine behaviors in the areas of responsibility, thoroughness, diligence, prioritizing, resourcefulness, cleanliness, organization, follow through, and more. They make character training black and white (as opposed to the gray method of \u201cI told you no tv until your extra reading is done\u201d or \u201cWhy do you always forget to take the trash down?\u201d).<\/p>\n

Furthermore,this protocol puts the choice to follow through on the positive behavior (or not to follow through) back onto the child. He marks the pie pieces if he decides not to comply. No questions. No grayness. Lastly, it offers grace and \u201cchances\u201d as the child is learning the behavior.
