Don't bother trying to reason with kids who are tired or hungry. Wait until they're in a better physical state before attempting any conversations or discipline.

The emails are fantastic. Both parenting and marriage advice. (You do get some advertising emails once in a while)

Another one from this week “
If you allow your child to verbally abuse you (call you names, insult you, use bad language), you are allowing him to verbally abuse his future spouse and children since, by permitting it, you are helping to wire in a strong behavioral/emotional circuit in his brain that will resurface whenever he feels upset with someone in his life.“



I got this email and was wondering, what are we supposed to do to not allow our kids to verbally abuse us if they are doing so?

Parent your baby/toddler/other according to his/her personality, not a book and not by societal pressure. Let your baby/toddler be a baby/toddler and be as physically close to you as the child needs to be. It'll pay off when they are ready to be independent.

I like to remind myself of their ages when they misbehave.
Remembering “she’s only two years old” or “he’s only five” makes it easy to put into perspective that they are babies, their brains are literally not developed yet, and are not supposed to behave like adults!

Mother's are supposed to be deaf and blind half the time. And mute 90% of it. (I have a 3 and 5 year old)

For active creative kids, be proactive with your day.
Don't just expect them to play when they come home from school.
Especially when my 3 yo was home with me all day till she started school at 3.
Have an activity plan.

And don't ever be in a rush. (Easy to say I know. I'm talking to myself.) That's when the difficulty behavior comes out.




How am I suppose to not let a 3 yo verbally abuse me?
My husband gets horrified by the things she says and it only gives it more fuel. I pretend to not hear. Or if she's in my face I say, "this isn't ok to say and isn't a nice thing to say, it can really hurt"
But but let them? How?

Listen to children. Let them have a voice, their opinions matter.
