Teach love, not fear. End child abuse:
Emergency Parenting Tips:
Be Aware of how you are feeling. Are you feeling angry? Never discipline a child when angry. Take a break and calm down.
Slow down. Breathe. Discipline can wait.
Check in with yourself. Are you stressed or upset about other things already? Don’t take them out on your child.
Imagine how you would like to be treated. Put yourself in you child’s shoes.
Listen to how you sound. Is your voice loud, scary, or mean? Be firm but kind.
Visualize how you look to your child.
Be a teacher, not a punisher. Think, find a good lesson in the moment. If you hit, you lose. Learn together.
Hug don’t hit. When you feel like hitting, hug your child instead and tell him you love him.
No one can love your child as much as you.
