Chapter 26 Summarize
Every parent has at one time or another struggled and confused about how to deal with their children's lying, stealing, and a host of other wrongdoings during their formative years.Threats, bribes, promises, sarcasm, rudeness are not the answer.The most effective solution is to articulate our values clearly.We don't ask questions for which we already know the answers, and above all, we treat our children with respect as we want them to respect us.This approach to dealing with a child's misbehavior is loving yet authoritative, and it strengthens the bond between parent and child.
