Cue Cards

When I did foster care, I had a hard time remembering the new vocabulary I was required to use to help these troubled youth, so I made some cue cards to help myself.

When I first started teaching people the language of self-government and I saw them struggling to remember the new words, I remembered how much cue cards had helped me in the past. These easy to use cards make using the TSG scripts much easier, especially when you need them most.

We recently added 3 new cards, for a total of 8 cards!

Note: This is a supplementary resource to help you implement Teaching Self-Government in your home. To successfully use this product, we recommend you have an understanding of the Teaching Self-Government program as contained in Parenting: A House United, Roles, and Popular Parenting Methods, or in the TSG Parenting Course, or in Parenting Mastery.

Why do we cater to our stresses and forget to choose calmness? After all, calmness is the only state where we truly feel safe and empowered. Stress, anger, and frustration never lead to true empowerment or peace, only emotional bondage. In 1998, when I was the young mother of a small baby and a toddler,and
