You can say no to your child
Do you often find yourself say yes to your child to avoid tantrums?
You can say NO to your child whenever you think it’s necessary, it will do them good. In fact, you help them to learn to deal with disappointment, how to prioritize and how to strike a balance between wants and needs, work and play. These are certainly vital skills to have in the real world when they grow up, more precious than the gold coin orOakley watches you leave behind for them.
We all have seen children making a scene at the toy store or grocery store, when they know their parents will succumb to their demands out of embarrassment. So, for your children’s good and for your own sanity, do not be afraid to say: “NO, and it means NO”! It won’t make you a bad mommy or bad daddy, it makes you a better one.
