It can be so tempting to fall into this trap of threatening our kids to get them to behave or do something. We all say "Santa is watching or else you will be put on the nauhgty list." 

I saw myself falling into this but knew I wanted to be a better parent. I knew threatening her is not what I want for our relationship, I didn't know why but I knew it couldn't healthy.     

This week we share some more tools to add to your toolbelt to encourage our kid's cooperation and stop ourselves from reacting with an "empty threat."

This holiday season, with grace, let's practice teaching our kids what Christmas, Hanukkah, Solstice, Kwanzaa, or whatever you celebrate is about and not that the gifts they receive are based on their behavior.
