Rule #5 Don’t allow your children to do anything that makes you dislike them.

“Actually, it’s not okay.”
These are the opening words from Rule #5 – they reference how a child is allowed to behave/not behave in public.

How our children behave in public, how they are received, if they are liked, if they are accepted – will dictate their success – socially, emotionally and quite possibly financially. In this chapter Jordan Peterson explores the challenges and necessity of training our children to be good and acceptable citizens.

Perhaps your children are grown. This rule/chapter and the information in it can be applied to other people and situations in your life. If there are people or even pets; you want others to like, that you want to like, you might be able to help them by reading and then applying the information in this chapter.

Join Debby Wilkerson and I as we discuss Rule #5 – Don’t let your children do anything that makes you dislike them.

We’ll share a couple of our stories. Hopefully, you’ll find the humor and wisdom in them and our stories will inspire you to share your story too.

What is/was your greatest challenge in relationship to this rule? We’d love to hear about it and how, or if, you were able to resolve it. Use the comment box below to tell us your story.
