As parents what options do we have? If they are arguing with us, it is simple, we do not argue back. We are in control, not them. Now if it is with each other, then it is still within our control. Love and Logic gives us options, “It sounds like you are having a problem – and it will be interesting to see how you solve it.” This atitude is something we need to model. We need to be the adult that we want our children to become.
Dr. Charles Fay’s website is full of information that can help us raise responsible, problem solving children.
