Episode 364: When Your Child Is Disrespectful... Say Less
Description
https://rachel-bailey.com/364-2/When your child rolls their eyes, snaps "You're so annoying," or yells "Whatever!", it's natural to jump in with, "Don't talk to me that way!" or "That's unacceptable." You want to teach them to be respectful... but those reactions usually only make situations worse. In fact, the best thing to do when your child is disrespectful is to do less.
In this episode, you'll learn:
-
Why doing less is not "letting them get away with it" and not the same as being weak, passive or permissive
-
How to stay grounded and model regulation instead of reacting to your child's Yuck with your own
-
When and how to address disrespect so that your child learns that it's not acceptable... and so they can actually respond differently in the future
