As many of you know Derrius Guice Jersey , my book ?The Barbarian's Guide to Success? talks about not only making more money, but it also talks about having a successful family. Part of a successful family, is having successful children.
I was talking to a Phys. Ed. coach in a public school the other day. He was telling me some amazing things about the children he coaches. Apparently most of the children are in horrible shape. He was telling me that he has children twist their ankles when running on the track on a regular basis. Most have problems with any physical activity.
I heard a story on the news a few months ago that said the Army had to change its workout program in basic training because new recruits were getting stress fractures from the exercise. Now folks, all they do in calisthenics. Push ups and sit ups and jumping jacks. Stress fractures from that!
When I was a child we had to run laps regularly. We played hard, and were embarrassed to ask to go to the nurse. If one of us had to go to the nurse from running on the track we would have never lived it down.
My point is not that children should make fun of each other, but that many of our children are wimps.
I read an article a few years ago about how attitudes toward child rearing are changing. According to the article Da'Ron Payne Jersey , fathers traditionally encouraged children to do things that were physical and mothers, traditionally, wanted to protect children from the potential harm that comes with such activity. I know this is not 100% true, as my mother encouraged me to play sports if I wanted to, but the article did say in general. According to the article, fathers are not encouraging their children as much. They are trying to protect the children more Dwayne Haskins Jr Jersey , much like what mother traditionally do. The result, kids that do very little or no exercising. Children that complain at the mildest ache or pain. In short, out of shape wimps. I did not believe it, but it seems to be coming true.
Now I know that you don't want your child to be a wimp, so here are a few things to help get them in batter shape:
w out the video games and turn the ?boob tube? off. To many kids are spending to much time in front of the TV.
meals and keep tabs on what your child eats. I know it is hard sometimes, but if you don't keep track they will be eating nothing but honey buns and Ho-Ho's. BTW Boston Market's non-fried chicken is as bad or worse than other restaurants. Eating out should be a treat not the norm. Cook a meal and sit down as a family and eat. Your children will be healthier Landon Collins Jersey , both physically and mentally.
3. Along the lines of number 2, pack a lunch. School lunches are the worst and most children eat out of a vending machine at school. Take a few minutes and pack a lunch, its worth it. They'll do better in school and be healthier and happier.
h your younger children to ride their bike and make your older ones play some sports. The older kids don't have to be sports stars, but make them play tennis or swim or SOMETHING.
5. Kick the kids out of the house. Make them go out and play. To many children spend to much time indoors. Too much sun is harmful, but too little is as well, Savvy?!?
So make the kids get stronger. Make them run and play. Forget the video games. If they want to shoot something they can do it with cap guns. (Don't tell me about the teen shooting stories on the news. Every single one of my friends and I played with cap guns and none of us killed someone. The problem with those kids ain't toy guns Alex Smith Jersey , it is something way more serious.)
At the end of the day, make them move. They need it.
And with that I will say
Get the Barbarian Mind Set and keep it. Stay tr? to yourself and your family, the rest will take care of itself.
Following are some useful tips on what causes alcohol addiction, and how you can start to address the problem.
To start with, it’s important to understand that alcohol by itself isn’t necessarily bad. People drink to celebrate events, at parties Sean Taylor Jersey , or at special occasions. But warning signs should start going off when a person is drinking for other, more emotional reasons. If you drink to feel good, or to forget something bad, then this is a sign of dependency, leading in to addiction. If your drinking habits are having a noticeable impact upon your finances, or if you drink throughout the day to avoid feeling physical withdrawal Terry McLaurin Jersey , these are sure signs that your body is physically suffering from addiction to alcohol. Usually, family and friends are amongst the first ones to detect alcoholism, and having an overly negative reaction to their questions, lying to them or feeling ashamed, is a sure way to know you are indeed addicted and need to confront the problem head-on.
