Mom Wakes Son Up For School

💣 👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻 ALL INFORMATION CLICK HERE 👈🏻👈🏻👈🏻

The alarm goes off and the morning battle begins: you knock on your child’s bedroom door to wake him, but you have to go back time and again to make sure he’s actually up, your voice rising with each “wake-up call.” As the minutes tick by and he still hasn’t gotten out of bed, you resort to screaming and yelling in his face, and then tear the blankets off the bed.
In desperation, you pull him out of bed by his feet, though you know you won’t be able to do that for many more years. A screaming match ensues, and now your child has missed the bus, so you have to take him to school. You’ll be late for work again, and you feel your blood pressure rising with every traffic light. Finally, your child slams the door of your car, and you head to work, agitated and upset, sure that your boss will make a comment again today about your lateness.
“As long as you take responsibility for getting your child out of bed, they will let you do it.”
If you find yourself bending over backwards to get your child going in the morning, you’re not alone. During parent coaching sessions, many parents tell me they set their own alarms an hour or more in advance in order to start the process of waking up their child. In many cases, consequences and punishments seem to have no effect.
According to the National Sleep Foundation, teens need an average of nine hours of sleep per night. Biological sleep patterns during adolescence make it difficult for teens to get to sleep before 11 pm, and nearly impossible to wake up in time to catch the bus or make it to homeroom on time. What that means is that when your child has to get up early to get to school, he or she is working against a biological drive to sleep. But just because a kid’s biology doesn’t match up with the demands of the outside world, it doesn’t mean that you have to surrender to the daily insanity of getting your kids up and out of the house.
The Total Transformation Program tells parents to stop taking responsibility for getting their kids out of bed on time. If you repeatedly bang on your child’s door to get them up, or you drag them out of bed, you are working harder to wake up your child than they are. As James Lehman says, “You are substituting your extra energy and effort for your child’s.” So if you think about it, why should your child get up on their own when you are willing to do it for them? If they know they don’t really have to get up until mom threatens to bring the ice water, why should they get up at the first ring of the alarm? Ten more minutes is ten more minutes, right?
In order to get your child to adhere to the morning routine, you need to give them the responsibility for getting up. Sit down with your child and have a discussion about getting up in the morning. You might say, “You and I have a hard time in the morning. I am no longer going to be responsible for getting you up on time. I will give you one wake up call, and then it’s up to you. If you miss the bus, I will not drive you to school. You will need to either find another way to get there, or you will need to call your teachers to get your assignments.”
This solution may not work for all families. Your child may be too young to leave at home while you’re at work; walking to school might not be an option. You’ll need to customize the consequences and expectations to your own family situation. If you do have to drive them to school because they overslept, maybe the consequence is that they have to do an hour of chores to make up for the time you lost.
The important thing to realize is that as long as you take responsibility for getting your child out of bed, they will let you do it. It may take a few days for them to get the hint, but once you stop working so hard, they will realize they have to change their behavior, or face certain consequences. A natural consequence for oversleeping and being late to school is having to make up any schoolwork that was missed. You might also check with your school to see what the policy is for repeated tardiness or missed classes. Don’t protect your child from these consequences by making sure they make that bus on time. In order to create less dramatic mornings, you have to let your child experience the consequences of not getting themselves up and out the door.
The Total Transformation also recommends that parents institute an earlier bedtime. You might tell your child: “You seem to have a hard time getting up in the morning, which tells me you aren’t getting enough sleep. You need to be up by 7 am on school days. As of today, we are moving your bedtime back to 10 pm on school nights. Once you have shown us that you can get up on time for five days in a row, we’d be happy to move your bedtime back to 11 pm.” If your child does not get up on time, simply state: “I know you want a later bedtime. You’ll have to figure out how to get yourself up on time in order to have that privilege.”
Because of the biological drives I mentioned earlier, it may be hard for your adolescent to go to sleep before 11 p.m. Going to bed by 10 is going to be a little “uncomfortable” for your child. In time, the discomfort and annoyance of having to get into bed with the lights out and no electronics may motivate him or her to get out of bed on time in the morning. Once your child has gotten up on their own for five days in a row, you can change their bedtime to a later hour. If they begin to oversleep again, change it back to 10 pm until they improve.
What if your child doesn’t know how to help themselves get up in the morning? Remember, teens and pre-teens are fighting against a physiological drive that tells them to sleep later than many school start times. In order to change their behavior, they need a plan, not just wishful thinking.
If your child has a hard time getting up, have them come up with a list of things they will do to help themselves get out of bed on time. Changing to an earlier bedtime may help. Putting the alarm clock across the room, instead of next to the bed, may also help. Have your child pack their school lunch, pick out their clothes and organize their backpack the night before so that they don’t have to do it in the morning. Remember to put the responsibility for getting up in the morning on your child. If you do it all for them, they have no reason to do it themselves.

We had this issue over the summer. Our teen wanted to stay up late online and to wake up whenever he wanted regardless. I did not want to struggle as hard as I was so I let him do it but felt cranky and discontent because it disappointed me that that was all he wanted to do. St the same time he had had a surgery in Jan and a difficult time so he needed lots and lots of sleep. However, we resented his having this much control in our lives. It meant the house was under his schedule not ours and that we had to beg for his participation. Curiously when at the end of the summer when he returned to school he became super responsible and got up every day by 5:15. I was happily impressed and thought about how much I had worried about him not being able to get up. Over the winter break, however, I made the rule and stuck with it that he needed to rise by 9:30. I told him I did not care what he did with his day but that he had to get out of bed by 9-9:30. He also had to get out of the house for a walk or fresh air once a day. And this worked really really well. The deal was cut over gaming. Each day was separate. Loss of opportunity to game came on same day as not getting up or giving me any resistance. After that…new day…I don’t think he missed once! It was such a relief for us and he successfully tied playing games with two healthy goals.
from. It can be exhausting to fight with your child every morning trying to get
her out of bed and on her way to school. One thing that could be productive is
developing a behavior chart or incentive plan that’s linked to your granddaughter getting up and
going to school in the morning. This could be accomplished a few different
ways. For instance, you could link one of her daily privileges, like watching
TV, going outside after school, or another daily activity she enjoys to her
meeting this expectation. If she gets up and goes to school, she earns the
privilege that day. If she doesn’t, then she wouldn’t earn it that day but
would have another opportunity to earn it the following day. You could also use
a behavior chart. We have a great article that explains how to use behavior
charts effectively. It also has templates for behavior charts you can download
and print off. You can find a link to that article here: https://www.empoweringparents.com/article/free-downloadables-child-behavior-charts-how-to-use-them-effectively/. I hope
you find this information helpful for your situation. Take care.

Young man surprises his mother after trip abroad
When this mom returned home after an outing, she never expected someone so special to be waiting inside for her.
In the video below, posted on July 24, 2017, mom is standing in her garage and opens up a white door that leads inside her home. She swings it open, but doesn't look up just yet.
Little does she know, her son, who had spent months living abroad, set up a hidden camera in that very room and is now standing right next to it. The young man named Mitchell waits silently as his mom gathers her things and fully walks inside.
She finally looks up and in that very moment, she gasps with her eyes bulging.
She is in disbelief that her son is standing directly in front of her, making this the ultimate surprise.Her jaw drops even further as she moves closer. Then, the mom throws herself into his arms and squeezes tight, happy and grateful to have her son back in Utah.
"Surprise, mom!" Mitchell tells her, although she can't seem to get over what is happening.
In the end, the entire family is reunited and Mitchell reveals that he caught the whole thing on hidden camera. Although his parents are taken aback, they couldn't have asked for a better moment.
Check out this son's hidden camera surprise for his mom in the video below, and please SHARE if you think this was super sweet!
Shortly after Alexia married Doug in 2004, the couple quickly grew their family with the birth of two sons, Skyler, 14, and Donovan, 11. But their family is anything but conventional, as far as society's traditional standards are concerned.
Alexia is a wife, mother, and professional body piercer — and now she's also a woman with not one but two husbands.
In 2011, Alexia realized she was having romantic feelings for Jake, her best friend of three years. Instead of pushing those feelings deep down and keeping them a secret from her husband, she decided to tell Doug.
Doug's response, much like Alexia's confession, was also pretty atypical: "As long as you still love me fully then let's see if we can make this work."
Alexia and Jake started dating, and now all three — Alexia, Doug, and Jake — live together in Maumee, Ohio. Alexia "married" both Doug and Jacob in a binding ceremony in July 2016, which she describes as a wedding without the legal marriage certificate.
Now Alexia is opening up about her "polyandrous" relationship while she raises her children alongside both men. "Our kids were older when Jake came into our lives," she told Barcroft TV. "So they just call Jake by his first name. Doug is their biological father so obviously he is called Dad."
Last year, Alexia got pregnant and welcomed her third child and first daughter. Both Doug and Jake were in the delivery room while she was giving birth, but this time around, things are being handled differently than with Skyler and Donovan ...
