Welcome to the world of positive parenting! As a parent, you have the important and rewarding job of guiding and nurturing your child's development.
One of the key aspects of positive parenting is setting limits, which can be challenging, especially if you're not sure where to start. In this book, we'll explore the importance of setting limits in parenting, and we'll offer PRACTICAL TIPS AND STRATEGIES for setting and enforcing limits in a CALM, POSITIVE AND EFFECTIVE WAY.
When parents are unable to set and enforce limits consistently, children may lose respect for their parents and may develop patterns of misbehaving without facing consequences. This can lead to increased insecurity and can have negative impacts on children's relationships with their parents and others.
Punishment, lecturing, nagging, scolding, blaming, or shaming can create negative emotions and may lead to behaviors such as fighting, fleeing, or freezing. Instead of focusing on punishment or correction, it can be more effective to first focus on creating a positive connection with children and building trust. The renowned expert on education and parenting, Alfie Kohn says:
"What best prepares children to deal with the challenges of the real world is, to feel supported and respected, to receive loving guidance and the chance to have some say about what happens to them."
Using positive discipline techniques can be helpful in setting boundaries and expectations while MAINTAINING A POSITIVE CONNECTION with children.
