* When you’re afraid of something, you want control.
* Books, magazines, mentorships, technology, museums, etc. are all equally valued.
* Parenting is supposed to feel good. Controlling kids all day is not pleasant. It’s hellish.
* How do children not group up to be “spoiled brats?”
* What is a “spoiled” kids - are not from a partnership-based paradigm.

* Control is the biggest time suck and energy suck.
* “Parents - you know when you hear truth.” ~ Dayna.
* The rights and respect of children - the evolution of consciousness.
* Story of bullying, power struggles.
* When we model peace in home, kids will model world-peace in everything they do.
