Listen, we know all know itโ€™s easier said than done, ๐˜‰๐˜œ๐˜›, if you can get these two things down youโ€™ll save yourself a lot of stress.โฃ
โฃ
Just think back to your childhood, and remember all the things you did good, bad, and indifferent. What you did wasnโ€™t to directly dishonor or disrespect your parents, you were just trying to figure things out and in the process you did some โ€œinterestingโ€ things. The same applies for your children! ๐Ÿ’™โฃ
โฃ
One last reminder – ๐˜ข๐˜ฅ๐˜ฅ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ด ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ ๐˜ข ๐˜ธ๐˜ข๐˜บ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜บ ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ฏ ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ฆ๐˜ช๐˜ท๐˜ฆ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ! If youโ€™re emotional in addressing the behavior, the focus of the child goes from what needs to be adjusted, to why is mom/dad yelling at me? They will be either defensive or reclusive; and neither response gets us to where we want to be.โฃ

It can be truly difficult to separate your feelings from parenting, as we know you care about your families so much. If you are looking for some advice or guidance, please message us, or leave a comment below! โฌ‡๏ธ
