CONTROLLING YOUR OWN FRUSTRATION

We must be able to do for ourselves what we need for our children to do.
-Constantly expressing anger towards our children for behaviour they do not have the tolls to manage only breaks down the relationship.
-Expect challenging behaviours from our children as part of normal development.

When we expect perfect behaviour, we set ourselves up to be enraged, rather than mildly annoyed, by our child’s behaviour.
-Understand that the challenging behaviours are temporary until we can figure outbetter ways to manage and prevent those difficult situations.
