1 00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: It's the Happy Families podcast. It's the podcast for the 2 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:11,160 Speaker 1: time poor parent who just answers. Now, Hello, this is 3 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 1: doctor Justin Coilson. I'm flying solid today. You can probably 4 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:15,440 Speaker 1: hear it in my voice. I'm not quite sounding the 5 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,079 Speaker 1: way that I normally do. As it happens in that 6 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,480 Speaker 1: thing called COVID, that global pandemic, that thing that's been 7 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,119 Speaker 1: affecting everyone. Well, it's finally got me. I've had my 8 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: three shots, I've been boosted, but finally, somewhere, somehow, I've 9 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: picked it up along the way. And it's kind of 10 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,559 Speaker 1: just I know that some people reflected really badly by it. 11 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 1: Some people are completely asymptomatic. They don't even know that 12 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: they've got it other than the fact that they did 13 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 1: a test and oh look what I've got. In my case, 14 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: you can kind of just hear that little bit of 15 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 1: throatyness that I've got. I might be a little bit 16 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 1: flatter than normal, slight sniffle, but it's kind of like 17 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,160 Speaker 1: a really mild version of man flu for me. Man 18 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: flu knocks me out, it puts me on my back 19 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 1: for days. COVID hasn't done that. It's just slowed me 20 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: down a little bit and made me, i don't know, 21 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: struggle a little bit compared to my normal level of health. 22 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: But in spite of that, I wanted to share a 23 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 1: podcast with you today, just a brief one, to emphasize 24 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: our upcoming webinar tonight. If you are a Happy Family's member, 25 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 1: this is included in your membership. You don't even have 26 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: to pay for It's already included in what you've paid 27 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: for already. And this is possibly one of the most 28 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: anticipated webinars that I've done this year. There has been 29 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,479 Speaker 1: so much interest in it. If you're not a Happy 30 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: Family's member and you're hearing about it for the first time, 31 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: just jump online to Happy Families dot com, dot you 32 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,839 Speaker 1: or go to my Facebook page doctor Justin Colson's Happy 33 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 1: Families and you'll see the info for Carrots and Sticks, 34 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: a webinar about punishment, reward, time out, praise, and all 35 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: of these other things that parents usually do to manage 36 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: their children's behavior better. Tonight's webinar is really about this 37 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: idea that punishments and rewards are the lowest form of 38 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: education and if we want to help our kids to thrive, 39 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: to flourish, and to do great stuff because it's the 40 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: right thing to do, and not because we're forcing them 41 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: to do it. We need to get away from the 42 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: reward chart. We need to get away from the threats 43 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: and bribes and actually just help our children to be awesome, 44 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: because they kind of are. There's a whole lot of 45 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: history that we're going to go through in terms of 46 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: why we parent the way that we do, what's been 47 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: taught to us, what our parents did to us, what 48 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: their parents did then, what their parents did to our grandparents, 49 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: and so on. I've been digging through the archives and 50 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: finding a whole lot of really fascinating stuff about why 51 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: carrots and sticks are just so popular. We're going to 52 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: talk about punishment and how that creates a whole lot 53 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: of problems, why we do it, and we're going to 54 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: talk about rewards and why, interestingly that also can create 55 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: a whole lot of problems, but why we consistently do it, 56 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: And then we'll move on to what I call the 57 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: motivation continuum. We're going to look at how we can 58 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: help our kids rather than hurt them, how we can 59 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: guide them rather than bribe them. We will also be 60 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: talking about time out, the research evidence that supports it, 61 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: and the problems with time out in spite of the 62 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: research that supports it. So I'm excited, very very excited 63 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 1: to share this one with you. I think that it's 64 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: going to blow your mind.
