Why you need to let your child do it herself.....

When you do everything for a child, the child loses the opportunity to gain skills, competencies and confidence. Kids learn through doing and once they learn, they feel empowered - prepared to deal with their responsibilities and challenges. Don't do ....

Will your kids want to be like you? Ask them. There will be some things they want to copy and some they don't. Use their answer as the basis of discussion and/or use it for self-reflection.

How to get your kids to be more kind and thoughtful.....

Don't tell your child to stop doing what he's doing...
|

Every behavioral pattern is wired into the brain. When you want to change your child's behavior, you must change the wiring. For example, suppose your 8 year old (or 18 year old) calls you names when he's upset. You tell him he's not allowed to spe ....

You can start "emotional coaching" with babies - even though they don't yet understand your words. They DO understand your affect and can feel your compassion. When you see your baby is sad or upset, don't hush him up or tell him everything is okay. ....

A toddler who tantrums is behaving perfectly normally for his age. His lack of sophisticated emotional and verbal regulation skills is to be expected. However, a school-age child doing the same thing, is a different story. Be careful not to reward ....
