Cat Lynch | Parent Coach

I share the powerful parenting skills you need to influence your teen, calm the chaos over devices, and be the leader your family needs you to be.

If you JUST want your kids to behave, I am not your coach.

If you want a rock-solid relationship with your kid that will influence them for the rest of their lives, I am your coach.

Exhaustion is not a virtue. Naps heal. Laying in the sun heals. Doing absolutely nothing but day dreaming heals.

[Hannah Frankman Hood @HannahFrankman]

Humans were not designed to spend more waking hours apart from their kids than with.

We were not designed to spend all day in kindergarten at age five.

We were not designed to spend ten hours a day on school and homework as teens.

This is not how it’s supposed to be.

@HippyMomPhD Second pro tip: help them make a blanket fort/TP for a quiet place to read in…

Overheard in the parking lot:

“No more licking the side of the car”

I’m not afraid of your germs.

Radical idea: instead of getting all up in arms about how other people are acting entitled, what if we start noticing our own acts of entitlement?

[Cat Lynch | Parent Coach @parentcoachcat]

If your kid is giving you a hard time, it’s because they’re HAVING a hard time.

Apply empathy and magic will happen.

[Cat Lynch | Parent Coach @parentcoachcat]

@Toddler_talkin Bwahahaha 😂😂

[Cat Lynch | Parent Coach @parentcoachcat]

Are you teaching your kid how to calm and clear their mind? Or just to cram it with more stuff?

[Cat Lynch | Parent Coach @parentcoachcat]

Peace of mind:

I want a Jeep. But I hear they need repairs constantly. So I’ve still got my 26-year-old RAV4, which almost never needs maintenance or repairs.

Because I value peace of mind over looking cool in a jeep. 😂

Who is with me?
