Authoritarian ParentingAuthoritarian parenting is a
style characterized by high
demands and low
responsiveness. Parents with an
authoritarian style have very
high expectations of their
children, yet provide very little
in the way of feedback and
nurture. Mistakes can be
punished harshly.
Permissive ParentingPermissive parenting is a characterized by low demands with high responsiveness. Permissive parents tend to very loving, yet provide few guidelines and rules. These parents do not expect mature behaviourfrom their children and often seem more like a friend than a parental figure.
Authoritative ParentingAuthoritative parenting is characterized by reasonable demands and high responsiveness. While these parents have high expectations for their children, they also give their children the strategies and support they need to succeed. Parents who exhibit this style listen to their children and provide love and warmth in addition to limits and fair discipline.

good and sad choices.

The Magic of Sleep Sleep is connected to behaviour, growth,
concentration, learning, obesity, physical health
and emotion.
Whilst asleep our child’s body is busy, this is the
primary time that the growth hormone is
secreted, along with the production of
cytokines, the proteins that are used in fighting
illness and infections.

Title
Sleep Deprivation Mood, lower concentration levels, and irritability are all well known to
be linked to sleep deprivation.
When sleep is delayed the wavelength of brain activity changes, and less restful sleep occurs. Less restful sleep causes higher blood glucose levels and cortisol levels during the sleep.
Leptin, the hormone that tells us we are full and don’t need to keep eating, turns of when tired.
Research has shown adults with less than 7 hours sleep are three times more likely to come down with illness as those with 8+ hours sleep.
Frontal lobe activity reduces significantly when sleep deprived -affecting attention, problem solving / risk taking, emotional expression, behaviour, memory and language. These issues will present similarly to ADHD.
Sleep deprivation occurs sooner than you think.
When does tired become sleep
deprived?
1 hour a night for 4 nightsResearch shows that the impact of a lack of
sleep shows in the brain of children after only
4 nights losing an hour’s sleep each night.
Sleep routines Set up the end of the day right - think about
food, activity, time with you as the parent
Same time
Same place
Bed as a place for sleep
Surroundings are essential
Lose the screens 90 minutes before
Beware the holiday trap
