Testimonials
“I asked my son one of Shaun’s Parent
Challenge questions from his list of 90 and it opened up a
dialogue I had no idea was there....loved
it~!!!!!”
I just want to thank you for your High Impact Questions
and all the things I have learned from you and have been
applying to my dealings with each of my kids, not to mention
co-workers, clients, etc.
Through each challenging time that either of my kids has
experienced, I find myself asking questions that keep in
check my emotional ties, and instead, lay options and
opportunities in front of them. I know this sounds so
abstract, but for each of my kids there have been some big
decisions made in the last few months, and I was able to
help thanks to the High Impact Questions helping me form
questions to ask that lead to more discovery and
thoughtfulness. I know these questions have helped even if I
don't ask the specific question per se. I think about how to
ask the question in a way that helps further the
discussions. Though I definitely tried to do this before, I
was not as successful at it as I feel I am now. I am sure I
still have a long way to go!!
So, with that, I say THANK YOU!!
Warm regards,

WELCOME PARENTS!
The Mental Edge invites you to participate in our 90-day Parenting
Challenge. This challenge is intended to help you cultivate a High
Impact relationship with your son or daughter.
As I tell all parents participating in our High Impact Parenting
Series, asking quality questions opens up the possibility of a
completely different kind of interaction with your child. With that
in mind, you will be given a series of High Impact Questions for the
next 90 days (30 days at a time) designed to open a door of
understanding into your child’s life that can give you a brand new
perspective on who your child is and how you might adjust your
parenting style to powerfully influence them.
GUIDELINES
1. Ask your son/daughter ONLY questions that are a part of the
questions provided for that 30 days.
2. If the response is not favorable do not lose hope it often takes
many days and sometimes weeks to see breakthrough. Many kids are
apathetic towards their parents and it takes some time to create a
change.
3. Don't alter the questions too much. They are written the way they
are for a reason. Changing them too much alters the way they are
heard by kids and therefore works against the desired outcome.
4. Write with your feedback. I am interested in the outcomes.
Blessings to you as you go on this 90 day Journey!
High Impact Parenting Principles
Your July 2010 Parent Challenge Questions:
1.) They say you are most like the people you hang around with. When
you look at your 5 closest friends, do you like what you see?
2.) Resilience is the ability an object has to return to its
original form after being bent, stretched or compressed. In people,
it's the ability to readily recover from adversity/setbacks. How
resilient are you? If you experienced a setback, could you learn
from all the disappointments and start over again?
3.) Is there something negative in your life? What can you do
starting today that will make a difference?
4.) The measure of success is results...when do you feel most
successful?
5.) You need books to invest in the miracle of your mind, what is
one book you would like to read in the next 90 days and why?
"When you start responding instead of reacting to life, life will
start responding to you." ~Jim Rohn
