How To Deal With Mean Words From My Child?

from the Mudroom · host Allana Robinson

If you aren't punishing our kids, how exactly do you deal with "mouthing off", "talking back", and "mean words?"    We want our kids to be respectful and kind, but how can we possibly teach them to be those things when they are hurling insults right left and centre?   In this episode I am going to discuss:  - How our parents dealt with 'back talk' and why that really doesn't work.  - What's going on neurologically when a child is using 'mean words'.  - How to discipline 'mean words' so that your child feels heard and expresses themselves more appropriately next time.
