Parenting: The Challenge

The words you use to speak to your children and discipline them are very important. You want to be able to be a nurturing, teaching parent and not shame them and influence a low self-esteem. More than you know, children pay attention to what you say to them and how you say it. Make sure you use positive words for discipline and praise like “you can”, “do your best”, or you can behave in a better way”. Using words like this can instill confidence and empower them to be the person they want to be.
