In this short YouTube clip, Speaker A shares a family strategy for reducing sibling rivalry: hosting monthly "core values" meetings where each member reflects on how they lived the family’s three core values—love, honor, and integrity—over the past month. The routine includes a round‑table discussion and peer feedback. The anecdote highlights a moment when the 16‑year‑old daughter gives overly positive feedback, prompting Speaker B to interject humorously with a shouted "Dishonor!" The clip blends practical parenting advice with light‑hearted family banter, aimed at a mom‑life audience.

Chapters

How do you reduce sibling rivalry? Several years ago, I had the bright idea to start hosting monthly core values meetings. In our family, we have 3 core values: love, honor, and integrity. Love God, yourself, and others in that order. Honor God, yourself, others, and spaces in that order. And practice integrity everywhere you go. I love the monthly values meetings because when I see a room or space untidy, all I have to do is ask, are you Honoring your space. Each month we get together, we go around the room, and we talk about how we think we've done for the month in each area. Each person then gets an opportunity to go around the room and give feedback on their experience of us. Well, my 16-year-old, she's going around the room and she's just giving glowing reviews and honor. I did this and honor, just loving on her siblings and all of the things. I couldn't even get meeting adjourned out of my mouth good enough before she goes and does Oh!
All right, that's it! Dishonor! Dishonor on your whole family! Make a note of this. Dishonor on you! Dishonor on your cow!
