@thefamilytherapist: 3 things to do with 6-7 year olds. #askdrbrie #childtherapist #parentinghack

Elyse Perrick :

My son is all upset bc he said no one else at school has to do chores. His chores= put away backpack, shoes and lunch box after school. 🤪🤪🤪

Katelynn matt :

Which parent has an hour to play everyday.. We don’t get home until 530 and then it’s dinner, tidying up from dinner, bathes .. we take a family walk and then it’s time to go to bed because they get up at 5:50am

Birdie Wood :

AN HOUR ?!? Only an hour? I’m sorry what

lainey🪶⚔️ :

When my 6 year old looks at me and just says “ I’m thirsty” I say “ oh man, that sucks” 😂

a-ding :

Reading is a great bonding activity and parents need to spend more time reading with kids not less.

Iloveprissy :

My daughter is 7 she’s not allowed to have a cell or tablet she’s my only child I can’t mess this up she cleans her room puts dishes away and we play Barbie’s together I hope she’s successful

sie :

Lord as a single full time working mama. 8:30-5 we do well to cram cooking dinner, bath and a couple chores before its bed time at 8:30.. granted by the time I pick her up and get home it’s 5:30-5:45 there’s just not enough time 🥺😮‍💨😮‍💨

jenn_campbell01 :

My 8yo and I play catch/soccer for an hour everyday :)

ricwothek0 :

Will these suggestions work for families that live in Tennessee or just in Arizona

SarahT :

We barely have an hour together after school

Girasol010 :

This just confirmed to me I’m on the right track with my kiddo 🥰

Kaitlin O'Neill :

My daughter is almost 9 and says I’m the strict mom of her friends because she has a bedtime routine that consists of cleaning her room, shower and brushing teeth and reading 20 minutes. I feel like it’s such a basic routine and somehow I’m the standout?

Taneisha Maria :

heading out side for a walk. thanks for the sweet reminder time spent isn't just homework reading etc.

Anngel Marieee* :

I took away all electronics except regular TV shows & the relationship has never been better 🥰🥰

Callie Lyle :

My 6 year old loads and unloads the dishwasher 😂😭. Been doing it for 2 years. Is this overworking her 😂😂😂

Erika | lifestyle • motherhood :

TikTok is listening to me today = overstimulated mama today

Jennifer :

Can you do an episode on how 7 year old should handle kids being mean to them? Or how parents should handle it. Could really use the help.

Allissa :

This is so helpful. Thank you!

Cecilia :

I would love this but when she takes over an hour to do her homework it doesn't leave time for much else.

Kelsey Thuman :

This was helpful. Thank you

CrazyCaseyCrew :

Great advice. Future LMFT here!

MamaStro860 :

Thank you😁

GrnAphrodite :

Definitely. My daughter is 6 and her jobs are washing the breakfast dishes and feeding the cat. She also makes her bed, cleans her room, and puts her own clothes away daily.

Sunny :

I feel like video games are 100% a good activity. idk
