Day 25 - Helping Children Make Good Choices Part I
1. Be Fair and Clear
• are they old enough to understand our instructions?
• are we expecting too much for their age?
2. Use your voice effectively
• use a serious tone of voice to teach what "no" means
• aim not to shout unless warning of danger
3. Action gets results
• shouting and threatening are ineffective
• important to take action over bad behavior,
• i.e: follow through with a consequence
Question:
What choices have you given your child(ren) today? What encouragement have you given for right choices this week? What unpleasant consequences have you used for wrong choices this week?
