The Punctual Child

Being late has become a status symbol of how busy we are, but it’s not doing us any favors when it comes to stress and anxiety and our interpersonal relationships. While it’s tempting to blame our lateness on genes or traffic, the truth is that we’re late because we haven’t helped our children learn to be on time and we’re always in a hurry.

Learn to love the kitchen timer and other tried-and-true tips to get kids on the bus on time. Bonus is that your household will run more smoothly and everyone will be more relaxed.
