How to be a parent to six kids?
I AM TRYING TO BE A MOTHER OF SIX KIDS AND THREE GIRLS ARE MY BIOLGIAL KIDS AND THE OTHER KIDS ARE FOSTER KIDS. THEY ARE OUT OF CONTROLL HOW DO I DEAL WITH IT. AM I DOING THE RIGHT THING
Have your whole family go to a psychiatrist for a family session and discuss how you can make it better, or have a family meeting. It’s important to get the kids involved. They’re more likely to follow rules that they make up with you and obey stuff that they have a say in than you just setting down rules.
well you need to how them some discipline really, it matters the ages, you have to show them responsibilities by making them clean the kitchen and doing chores and then they earn something or a reward for doing their chore if they do a good job.
stick to what you say, I know my mum ends up not doing that a lot and I know that often she won’t. be strict but don’t over do it. and discipline them accordingly
My wife’s grand parents had more than ten kids, on both her mom & dad’s side of the family.
So, I think you can handle it…you just need help, rules, and to be consistant in how you treat them all. If you need specific advice on a specific situation, etc, feel free to post. I only have two kids, but I think a lot of the experience with a few applies to more.
Dear kathyrh69, There should be plenty of help for you at the agency where you have the foster children from. They should have respite care as well as workers to help you out in the home. You may not be able to care for all the children properly at this point. It is okay if you can’t. Being a foster parent is a wonderful thing but if you and your own children are suffering because of it…it may not be for you. Speak with your foster worker about taking some or all the children out of your home. It’s okay and even recommended if you are having difficulties. Sue…good luck
To deal with 6 kids you have to be come and give some orders maybe give them chores to do every weekend … if I was you wich I’m not going to be a mother for 18 to 20 years because I’m only 11 dont tell any body but just give them some rules and if they behave give them a treat of going to the mall or to the movies you have to be a little strick so they dont grow up and be idiots but dont be to hard on them and do not let them play to many sports or it’s going to be streatsful
Ask someone for help if you really cant control them.^^Good luck!
