TIP #38 FROM THE EVERYDAY MOTHER

 
Are you trying too hard to control your child?
 
 

Ask yourself: Is it your goal to control your child, or teach them how to control themselves?

Helping your child learn how to control themselves may be a lot of work up front, but it will help them with a major life skill (self control) in the future. It will also help frame how you encourage your child through difficult situations.
