My morning Cafe

>Hello coffee lovers, Years ago it was told men had the decisions on what goes on in the household, and women were to kind of obey what the rules they just were. As time went by women started to talk for themselves or and their children. Nowadays it's both parents that must agree or not agree when it comes to the children. Co-parenting is for both parents to be consistent and in agreement with rules regarding behavior and discipline, bedtimes, screen time, playtime, personal hygiene, and household chores. But the reality is, if your parenting styles differ and before you separate because of it, then you’re unlikely to magically be in agreement now. But I want to talk about it before it gets that far. Let's think about some rules that may help you see things a bit better and feel you are heard as well. The rules should be the same in both households: When the parents disagree on the rules it also confuses the children which leaves the rule open and able to break beca...

Hello coffee Lovers, The other week I got a phone call that my son's school was on lockdown because of a threat online from another student. Yet it did not last long. It was a bit scary to hear. I get out of a certain area to reduce violence and find out I have to worry even in the nicest city. Lately I have been seeing so much violence and it's mostly kids. What happened to the time where you had a fight and there was a winner and a loser. Which sounds harsh but most of the time they came home alive. I do now that in some places they are used to things of this nature. I lived in NYC most of my life and never had to deal with this. I am glad that the school took whatever threat it was seriously and paid attention to the details enough to keep our children safe. For those who do not know,This scenario involves a serious threat that requires immediate action. The types of events that require lockdowns include situations such as the following: School lockdown procedures req...

Hello coffee Lovers, I hope you have something strong to drink today,first of all because it's only the middle of the week and next we are gonna realize some things today.I recently heard some news that made me well emotional. Not a sad thing but it made me think I may have abandoned issues. I think I know it but realized it way late in my game. So I just want you guys to ask yourself a couple of questions to realize if you have it or not. Here are some question to ask yourself: 1)Do you Have a Hard Time Letting People In? LIke friends or family,telling them how you feel when you are going through stuff? 2)You are Detache, because it is easier than getting hurt? 3)Are you Clingy, when you do let someone in? 4)Difficulty Feeling Love, rather be numb, because it's easier than feeling? 5)You are Controlling,because it's something you can see coming? 6) You are Sensitive, when it comes to people having issues with you and get emotional? 7)Weak boundaries,because y...

Hello coffee lovers, Today’s conversation is about to get a little deep,so I suggest you might want to get your best kind of latte or something a bit stronger. As you know we all have struggles that we keep to ourselves or at least try to. I am here to talk about one of my struggles and maybe you can talk about yours if you feel comfortable enough to do so. If it helps you don’t have to leave your name. I am a woman who had many struggles throughout my life. But I have one that keeps on occurring and it's hard for me to overcome. It's the need to please everyone else before myself. Now you may think that's a small problem but it can become bad. Depending on the situation you are saying yes or helping people out that can land you in places that you never thought you would be. I am the friend they call no matter how bad it is they call me. It can be a good thing but it can also be bad. This time around in my new chapter of life I am trying to stop it just a bit and t...

Good morning coffee lovers, So I must admit I cheated today, I didn't have coffee, I had a refresher. Sometimes I do need a pause yet I will have one later but this morning I chose something different. Which is fine. My children have the same thing all the time but I tempt them to try new things to see if they like it. I like to nudge them sometimes sto do different things but I still let them be themselves. This is why I want to talk about the influence we have and our children. When I was young I always knew what I wanted to be. My parents had other plans for me just to get any job that gave enough money to survive. I was told that my dream was just that: a dream,that writer did not make money and I had to do something that made money. I must admit I was sad for a pretty long time but I also looked at life realistically and well did what I was told and I worked real hard with each job I had. As I grew up I realized nothing I did satisfied me and in the back of my mind...
