Hello Parents! Consequences are meant to teach kids how to deal with and overcome problems they've created.  There's no need to "rub salt in the wound" once your child has made right what they did wrong.

No-Problem Parents understand that problems are meant to be dealt with and overcome and that the best way to teach your child "a lesson" is to allow them to own their problems or misbehavior and to solve the problem themselves.  Our job as the parent is to guide them as they make mistakes throughout their childhood and we can do so with empathy even when we are super frustrated, disappointed or hassled by the misbehavior. 

In today's episode I share the "Make it Right Technique" which can be used when your child has hurt or caused a problem for someone else.  And, you can model this technique by using it for yourself, in your daily life when you have hurt or caused a problem for your child or someone else!

Here's a link to the FREE MAKE IT RIGHT PDF and here's a link to schedule a call with me if you'd like a real life example of how you can use the technique: Jaci's Calendar
