[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Like almost any "parenting expert" she has some good points that may or may not be effective with your kid. I watched her video on how she didn't like the phrase "You get what you get and you don't get upset." She thinks the phrase is overly harsh and not helpful for working through emotions around disappointments. I disagree - it's an extremely helpful phrase for teaching children how to function in a group where the adult may not have the ability/time to help each child process their feelings about getting a green popsicle instead of a red one. Children often repeat it themselves, and I think its empowering.[/quote] +1 She has good advice and bad but she does seem to have the idea that her way is the one right way for all types of kids (and doesn’t seem open to the idea that different types of kids respond to different approaches.)
