131: 10 Things to Say Instead of STOP CRYING!
Description
“Stop crying” is probably the most automatic sentence in parenting, and I said it to my own child in the middle of a carpark after a kids’ party. (Plus a thousand more times over the yeras I'm sure).
Today I explain why it ACTUALLY comes out of our mouths so fast, and how the way we were parented plays a bigger part than most of us realise. I walk you through what crying really is, a simple step-by-step approach for staying calm when the tears start, and 10 phrases you can use TODAY.
I also share why often the most powerful thing you can do is say nothing at all. If you want to stop reacting and start responding, this is a great place to start.
