This month's life skill is Self-Respect: having respect for yourself and your possession
Self-respect can be explained as knowing that you are valuable and deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. Children who receive respect will learn to have self-respect.
What are some ways to help teach self-respect to your children?
Pre-schoolers:
Grade School (K-3rd grade)
When children are talking to you about something that is very serious to them, be sure to be at eye level and have eye contact with them. If you are distracted and not paying attention while they are talking, they will begin to feel as though their words/feelings do not matter to you, so how could they matter to someone else? Also, be sure to speak in the same manner (with eye contact and on their level) when speaking to them.
Grades 4th-6th
All children have special qualities they possess, expose these qualities with a treat! "I'm really proud of how hard you have been working. I want to show you how proud I am, lets...!"

Great place to start learning BJJ.
Peak has excellent coaches and great training partners. Give it a try if you are in the area
Peak has a great atmosphere full of wonderful teammates. No matter what your current fitness level and goals are, you will have support for your work and progress. I've been going to Peak, on and off, for 7 years. The on times make all of life night-and-day better than the off times. I've taken BJJ, Muay Thai, and fitness classes; you can't go wrong. Highly recommended - come see for yourself.
