While teaching proper behavior and monitoring the child’s actions is still important, the Accountability Mindset makes a shift towards intentionally granting the child greater privileges in choosing and then giving a child time and space to personally recognize the outcomes of those choices. Parents regularly lead the child in honest, open-minded reflection on structured options and choices as well as natural consequences. The focus is on mentoring and motivating the child with a vision that he/she can control much of his/her personal destiny by the choices he/she makes.
