Why Bribes and Threats Aren't Helpful (and What to Do Instead)

Respectful Parenting: Janet Lansbury Unruffled - Un podcast de JLML Press - Les mardis

Catégories:

A parent wants to get out of a cycle of bribing her 3.5-year old and writes to Janet for help. “It seems that in order to get him to do anything, I have to offer a reward, treat, or special outing.” If these strategies don’t work, she says, she will threaten to take something away. This mom admits that she is a people pleaser, so when she does set a boundary, she feels guilty about it. She worries that she’s teaching this to her son. “I don’t want him to feel guilty about his feelings or his boundaries.” For more advice on common parenting issues, please check out Janet's best-selling books on Audible.
