[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Try never to label the person, but the behavior. "Kicking the back of my seat is really annoying to me. Could you please stop?" "Jumping onto the cat was mean. Can you apologize to him and get him a treat?" versus "You are being annoying by kicking the back of my seat" or "You are mean for hurting the cat."[/quote] If your kid is kicking animals they ARE mean... OP, I've told my 6 year old she's annoying...her self worth hasn't broken down as a person - but I'm also not concerned about that. Sometimes people are annoying and mean. It's ok to tell them that. I wouldn't consider that "labeling" or "name calling." And people wonder where the snowflake term comes from....[/quote]
