INFO:

Sometimes, my 6YO daughter might say negative things about some of the choices I make such as my hair color, clothing choice or even what music I listen to.  Instead of reacting negatively because what she said was mean, I think it’s critical we dive deeper to understand where they are coming from.  Oftentimes, they might be trying to convey a different message but they just express it in an inappropriateu002Fnegative way.  Instead of a full blown argument, we can turn them into conversation that allows us to get to know each other better. With that said, there will be times where my daughter simply doesn’t agree with my choice.  In those cases, I want to teach them that it’s completely okay for me to make choices for myself so they can learn that it's also okay for them to make choices for themselves.  This is how we build our little one up with self confidence and autonomy.  ⬇️💬 If you have any thoughts on this topic, feel free to drop a comment down below. . 💫Share if you find this helpful!
