How?

How do you get your kids to listen to you, just because they choose to listen, and not because your voice has reached a volume and pitch that they have come to recognize as the 'it's almost too late' level?
How do you get them to obey and do what you say, because they just want to choose good, rather than from the fear of punishment or because mom says she's going to take away this or that if we don't?
I bet you can tell how my day has gone so far.

I don't know, but when you find out, can you let me know?

Sometimes when when my tone with my kids isn't what it should be I wonder if there isn't another saying the same about me.

Glad I'm not the only one who wonders such questions....!!!
