Parenting Tip from Dr. Jennifer Cardinal
Don't let summer fizzle out. Stay consistent with your parenting plan. Make statements when giving directions rather than giving hints or asking questions:
Correct Example: "When you pic up your toys we'll go to the park."
"I need you to pick up your toys."
(Present in a confident manner and expect compliance)
Incorrect Example: "If you pick up your toys, we'll go to the park."
"What about picking up your toys."
