May 20th
Brunettes are mainly known to be calm and down to earth girls who make for very good wives. However, when you have brunette teens, you will find out that teens are teens. As a parent, it will be paramount to know how you can best understand brunette teens. The following are some tips that will enable you know your teen well. There has been a misconception that your teens will try to torture you when they reach that crucial age. I will not speak for all teens but, it is vital that you understand some of the behavioral troubles they face. The following are common features when it comes to teenagers. Slamming doors, name calling, lack of decency and gratitude and I’m sure you can name very many others. The above is very familiar to households that play host to teens. They act out in all manner of ways and, this can be a behavior that is enough to drive any person insane. Being moody is a common feature with teens and, this should be surprising. Every parent wants to know how to make it better.
Your brunette teens can be very sweet at times and, you feel like they are angels. Girls are very mysterious and when it comes to teen age, they are the ones who can cause the biggest rift in relationships. Drama is probably a soft word to use for brunettes teens. There are very many instances where the girls will twist things and, you feel like you can have them taken in by another family for good. The journey of raising teens is not easy and, you will give up on several instances but, when you remember that they are your little girls, it is hard for you to ignore them and not to love them. Therefore, you find solutions at least to make things better for a while. It is vital to find out what the problem is in the first place. The problems that affect brunette teens are mainly not very serious to you. However, it is vital for you to lend a keen ear even before you dismiss something that would be menial to you. The key is to be sensitive and, when you are sensitive enough, you will be able to navigate through the problems which are facing your teen. You do not have to agree with every little thing they say. Before you are a friend to you child, you are a parent. Teens do not want parents who are too soft.
Even if they do not show it often, brunette teens want somebody who can direct them. Every teen wants to feel a strong shoulder they can lean on. When a parent ceases to be tough, they will take advantage of this. This does not mean you transform your home into a boot camp; you can listen to your child and give them the direction that will be best for them. It is vital to ensure that you know what is best for your child. It is vital to keep in mind that you do not know everything. Therefore, as a parent, you are in the process of learning. The reason why you are the bigger person is because you have the right experience that you can use to mold your child. All this is not as easy as it sounds but, the secret is to do it with love. You can never go wrong with this.

Teaching Your Teens to Thrive!
May 20th
Start a New Life for Your Teen this New Year.
Whether you are a billionaire, a thousandaire or a widow with only one mite, when you are buried in basic needs, you are not living a very rich life. The trouble is: how do you escape the rut of basic needs when most of your income is eaten up by housing and transportation and you’re always running out of money before the end of the month!
Since we’re not taught how to budget in high school or college, it really is up to you to teach your kids how to thrive, instead of merely surviving. Most people pay bills and then try to scrape a life together on what’s left over. This recipe for the rich life has you savoring life first — before you pay the bills!
Let’s say that your teen’s allowance is $100 a month . . .
The Thrive Budget: 50% to thrive and 50% to survive
10% (or $10) Buy My Own Island fund
10% (or $10) Charity
10% (or $10) Education fund
10% (or $10) Fun, Immediate
10% (or $10) Fun, Big Ticket
50% (or $50) Basic Needs
With electronic banking, this should be fun and easy to do each month! Essentially, you set it up once and then everything happens automatically.
Buy My Own Island fund: Set up a minor’s Individual Retirement Account through your brokerage. This should be the first auto-deposit every month — money that earns money while you sleep! The habit of investing is what’s important to establish first. If you don’t know which stocks or funds to buy, just use a Treasury bill ETF for now. (PowerShares.com has one.)
Charity: Have your teenagers write a check to their favorite charity and pop it in the mail! (Let it be their choice, not yours.)
Education fund: College savings plans, aka 529 plans, are a great way to save up for college and the contribution should be tax deductible.
Fun, Immediate: CASH!! Whether it’s a movie or ice cream, when the cash runs out, the fun must become free — like picnics, like board games, like spin the bottle (just kidding).
Fun, Big Ticket: Most bank accounts have a savings account attached these days. Let that be where your teen saves up for the new iPod or even a car!
Basic Needs: Standard Bank Account. The key here is to have 50% spent on thriving first — before basic needs — so that the focus is on living a rich life, instead of struggling to survive. Now, your teen has 50% of the $100, or only $50 to spend on basic needs. Your teen won’t have to worry about food, housing and insurance yet, but why not let them buy their own shampoo, after school snacks, gas, clothes, etc?
The Thrive Budget is a great way to teach your kids healthy money habits, where the focus is on building a better life, rather than just paying bills.
These budgeting strategies are explained in greater detail in Put Your Money Where Your Heart Is, my new book! Buy it now on Amazon.com, or in your favorite book store or website!
Ask Natalie: The Thrive Plan sounds great, but my teen is already complaining that s/he’d rather have fun than give to charity. What do I tell her?
What we’re doing with the Thrive budget is teaching the average person exactly what it takes to live like a billionaire. Billionaires, like Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple Computer, understand the flow of money. They sleep on couches to launch their dream businesses. They sit on non-profit boards to meet the great minds and deep wallets who will invest in their dreams. They never overspend on basic needs or fleeting fantasies. So, tell your teen that this is Billionaire Boot Camp! S/he’s never going to get rich by burning through her dough and/or blowing her charitable contributions on movies.
If s/he wants more money for fun, there is one easy way to do that while remaining in the dream come true life budget — increase income. If her basic needs are out of whack — which is easy to do with high gas prices — there’s a solution for that — get creative!
My teenage son discovered that he was spending over $50 a week on gas going to work and college. The second week, he bought a bike and pedaled around town for free. That was an instant reduction in basic needs! Get creative. Carpool. Take public transportation. Buy a hybrid or an electric car. Ride a bike.
The best solution to a surly teen, however, is to start these money habits earlier. Teens are so busy trying to buy more freedom from you that they’ll forget to attack the family traditions that have been ingrained since elementary school.
