House Rules & Phrases

Write down only what is showing up right now in your child's behavior. Then flip each rule into a short, positive phrase you will repeat consistently. This is how you speak to their subconscious.

Consequences & Rewards

Natural consequences, not punishments. You are connecting the dots between choices and outcomes. Every rule gets both a positive and a negative consequence written beside it.

My Consistency Plan

Consistency is not rigidity. It is love in action. Every time you follow through, you tell your child: this world is safe, predictable, and I will always show up for you.

What triggers me to let it slide
What I will remind myself of in that moment
My mindset going into this process
What setting boundaries means to me now
What I want my home to feel like
What I am most proud of so far
