In parenting, we tend to fall back on phrases when talking with our kids. We use the same phrases over and over again. Some of these phrases work and others, not so much. It's so important to reflect on the language we use, especially if our goal is to elicit more cooperation and help our kids make good choices. In today's episode, I'll share 6 common parenting phrases to stop using. For each phrase, I'll share why we often say these phrases in the first place, why it backfires on us, and most importantly, what to say instead and why. Hope you enjoy!
