Love and Logic Take Me Away...

I don't know how many people know about Love and Logic, but it changed my life so much so that a couple of years ago I got a tattoo about it. The hard part is keeping up with the philosophy... Allowing the boys to choose their consequences rather than picking the one I want them to have, being consistent (SO hard!), and using as few words as possible so the lesson isn't lost in the lecture.
Today in particular I am having a hard time with the L&L style and am really trying not to revert back to the yelling and screaming because even though they are successful in the short run, in the long run however it is quite counterproductive. Sometimes I need a refresher course, especially after they have spent the weekend away. And today is one of those days...
My Love & Logic tattoo, see two "Ls" in the heart?
