Whether you’re a
new parent or a veteran one, you know that yelling usually makes a situation
worse – not better – yet somehow it still happens. Sometimes it happens a lot.
When it comes to
getting children to listen, it’s mostly how you say things rather than
what you’re actually saying. However, using
positive words instead of negative ones will yield the best results. For
example, instead of saying “no running”, say “walk, please”. Or, you can say
“walking feet only, please”.
