Chapters
I see these 10 parenting mistakes all the time 1. Taking a child's behavior personally Their behavior is instinct. It's not personal. 2. Reacting to your kids Parents are supposed to be proactive Most of the time 3. Trying to be equals with children Parents need to be the leaders in the family 4. Not getting connected first children don't listen if they don't feel connected 5. Teaching consequences poorly they should be clear, fair and calm 6. 6. Not buying time until children can do something. Many issues are natural and go away if you're just patient. 7. Taking things your child needs away from them. It teaches them not to care and it doesn't work over time. 8. Not letting kids cry they need firm loving limits at times to cry out their frustrations 9. Lack of structure and ritual Children need to know what's happening to feel secure 10. Yelling at your child Children's brains Don't learn a thing while you're yelling at them.
