Discussion Questions:
1. Ginger Hubbard discusses the importance of focusing on heart change rather than just behavioral change. How can parents practically engage in discipline that targets the heart of our child?
2. Yvette and Ginger talk about the temptation to use ineffective parenting methods like bribing and threatening. Why do you think these methods are so commonly used and what can be some long-term effects of relying on them?
3. In the podcast, it's mentioned that parents often act out of selfishness when disciplining their children. Can you think of examples when you've witnessed this, and how can parents shift their focus to a more selfless, Christ-centered approach to parenting?
4. How does the idea of instant obedience play into raising children who are obedient to God's word? Do you agree with Ginger Hubbard's stance on not counting to three before expecting a child's obedience?
5. Ginger emphasizes the need to teach children self-control and obedience to experience joy and God's best for their lives. How can implementing these values early on impact a child's adult life?
6. The three-step plan for effective parenting outlined by Ginger includes asking heart-probing questions, instructing children to put off wrong behavior, and to put on right behavior. How can parents effectively implement this strategy in daily situations?
7. How can the use of heart-probing questions benefit the child and the parent in understanding the motivations behind a child's misbehavior?
8. What are some ways parents can maintain their authority over their children while still fostering a loving and respectful relationship?
9. Ginger's "Wise Words for Moms" chart is mentioned as a quick reference. How might having such a tool at hand change the way parents address disobedience and other behavior issues?
10. Modeling behavior is a significant part of parenting—as Ginger and Yvette discuss modeling self-control, consistency, and love. Can you share an example of how positive modeling from a parent influenced a child in a noticeable way?

There’s a Revolution Transforming Education and it’s NOT Happening in the Classroom!

Schoolhouse Rocked will rock your educational world to the foundations and give you and your kids great hope for the future! The old-school paradigm has proven broken and a new way of learning is here. Don’t miss this important film!” – Kirk Cameron

“Our precious children (and grandchildren) are much too important to entrust to a system that seeks to indoctrinate them with the radical ideology of the Left. Schoolhouse Rocked is excellent and a wonderful testimony to the growing popularity of home schooling and the superior education that it provides young people.” – Dr. James Dobson

“This is not an exaggeration to say, this is the movement that is needed to save this country.”
– Rick Green
