Since our whole family enjoys singing we have wanted a family song for a while. Well, finally we did it. Our great friend and mentor, Lawrence Gee put music to some words about family that I wrote out. Lawrence knows our family well, and understands the principles of self-government too, so he crafted a song that was just perfect for us to sing. This song is our Christmas present to your family. We hope you have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Feel free to share this with other people too. It is meant to inspire parents and children to live as a more united family. Sending you all our love! ~The Peck Family

Spencer and I loved the time we spent with a group of Chinese Children. We taught them a class, with activities, about how saying okay can help them be more happy. We had a great time!

As many of you may know I am a woman with a mission. Quite simply, the mission is to assist in healing homes in preparation for difficult and exciting times to come. If the families of the world follow correct principles and live lives of love, selflessness, self-control, and good communication, then they will be ready to weather the storms of life in these days and to be ready for the exciting times ahead. I have a message to share with the world which will bring peace to homes and souls. We all have a purpose and we must fit ourselves to it.

I just want all of you who have asked me questions lately to know that I have been swamped with questions. I have a very long list at this point. I am still working away at them, but only have so much time each day to devote to question and answer, so some will probably go un-answered for a while before I can get to them. I am so sorry for this but just thought I would let all of you know that I wish I could do it better faster and am currently contemplating a way I might be able to do that for you.
Thanks for your patience. I will get you your answers as soon as I am able.

Since I don’t actually have the books yet I am continuing the pre-sale for a few more days. I hope this helps a few people get books for cheaper. Thank you for your patience.

The whole show is finally up for everyone to see. It was editing nicely. I really appreciate how truthful the BBC was in their interpretation of our lives and how we parent. My only regret is that you all couldn’t have been tuned in for all eight days. There are so many experiences which didn’t make the show due to time. I will have to tell you all how James and Hannah liked the other, not seen, experiences in our week too.

I’m all pumped up to parent with positiveness, but what does that look like, how does is sound, how does it really play out in the heat of the moment when my first reaction is to

I still continue to work through as many of the questions which have been sent to me as possible, and feel bad that I don’t have time to get to them as quickly as I would like to. Recently, I have done lots of mentor calls with people to answer some people’s questions more quickly. Others have felt it helpful to have mentor calls to start their family government off in the right direction.
If you are intersted in having a mentor call with me, I am able to schedule one hour calls for $50 per hour at this time. You will also get a recording of your call so that you can refer back whenever you like.

Readers,
I have been spending a lot of time writing my Teaching Self government book lately. It is so exciting to see the progress and know that I am getting closer to accomplishing this goal.
On this site I have answered many questions. I would like to use some of these questions (without names attatched of course) in parts of my book, because I know the answers will be beneficial to everyone who reads them.
This is a notice to let you know that I am planning on using some of the blog material in the book. If you, for some reason, don’t want your question or comments published
In the post below titled Honesty, I said that there is an article already written on the subject. Some people have had a hard time accessing it.
Type communicating honestly into the search bar at your top right. Then some samples of blogs associated with honesty should come up. Find “Communicating Honestly” and then click the title. This should show you the whole entry. Sorry if I was confusing.

Two days ago my son set up all of his little army figures in army formation and came to me and said, “Mom, will you play army with me?”
The first thought I had was, ‘I can’t right now, because I am trying to get this canning done.’
The second thought I had was, ‘maybe I can play for just a few minutes to say that I did and then get back to the canning.’
Luckily, I didn’t act upon any of those thoughts.
I looked at the army guys and looked at my son’s face. I realized that army is not a fast game, and it isn’t meant to be. It’s meant to be a game where you figure strategy, and di
