In all of the girls surveyed, their primary parent (usually the mother) displayed high parental expectations. The researchers found these girls were:

 

  • Less likely to get pregnant
  • Less likely to be unemployed
  • Less likely to work in dead-end jobs
  • More likely to attend college

Door slams, grouchiness and eye rolls are just a few of the more obvious reactions. But, the research showed that while consciously our kids may find us annoying, deep down they may be listening.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”custom” el_width=”70″ accent_color=”#962468″ css=”.vc_custom_1468283466004{padding-top: 15px !important;padding-bottom: 15px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Does Nagging Really Work?

(That’s not to say it won’t work for boys too.) Think about it. Do you still hear the voice of your parents warning you about excesses and expectations?[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”custom” el_width=”70″ accent_color=”#962468″ css=”.vc_custom_1468283466004{padding-top: 15px !important;padding-bottom: 15px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text][easy-social-share buttons=”facebook,twitter,pinterest,linkedin,print,mail” counters=0 style=”button”][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
