| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to the quarter of the day show. |
| 0:27.0 | I'm your host Sean Crox and I'm a Sean Crox and I'm a super kid series continues today with Dr. Wayne |
| 0:32.8 | Dyer and today Dr. Dyer is going to encourage you to teach your children to take responsibility. |
| 0:40.2 | When children see their parents blaming other people all the time for the circumstances of their |
| 0:45.7 | lives, that is exactly what they are going to do. Not only as children but as adults. And he's also |
| 0:51.7 | going to encourage you to see your children as whole and complete right now and to celebrate |
| 0:58.6 | the present moment of your children's lives. Here's Dr. Wayne Dyer. |
| 1:03.9 | I want my children to be self-reliant. That's the third thing I want for them. I want them to take |
| 1:08.8 | risks. I want them to value themselves and I want them to be self-reliant. And what does that mean? |
| 1:13.2 | Self-reliant. Relying on me. How many of you as parents are concerned about drugs and raising your |

| 1:39.7 | and she's heading up a program in her school called Just Say No. So it's like this is a concern |
| 1:45.5 | in our culture isn't it? Let me just talk for a few minutes about this. You can't raise them to be |
| 1:51.0 | relying on you. If you are, you're not doing them a favor because when it's time for them to leave |
| 1:56.2 | the nest, they won't know how to fly and you'll also resent them for leaving as well. So you will be |
| 2:01.8 | creating a dependent relationship rather than fostering an independent relationship. If you ask a |
| 2:07.4 | child who is down, who is depressed or an adult, anyone in our culture, you ask them, why are you |
| 2:13.3 | down? I'll come here unhappy. Do you know that three out of four people will say, well, she hurt my |
| 2:17.8 | feelings or she made me mad or my parents are bugging me or the teacher flunked me or the stock market |
