As John Andrew Holmes wisely said,
"Never tell a young person that something cannot be done. God may have been waiting
centuries for somebody ignorant enough of the impossible to do that thing."

LIVING LOVE AND LOGIC TIP #3

Choosing an empathatic statement to use before delivering a consequence helps foster trust and love between a child and parent. It also helps a child learn responsibility and not create resentment. Choose one statement that fits your personality and is easy for you to remember.

*This is so sad.             * What a bummer.                *On man. That's too bad.
* That's never good.     * Dang. That's awful.             *This stinks.


Remember to practice this statement and if helpful, post reminder notes in accessible spots!
