[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every time any of my kids scream they are put outside. Even the 15 month old. They sit on the porch or very safe fenced in yard. If you act like you’re playing outside, outside you go.

Rain, snow, wind. Outside. Stops the screaming.

I have no tolerance for screaming in our tiny house. [/quote]

No, sounds like it’s unacceptable to have big feelings…an 18 month old has no way of using words to say what they need/what’s wrong. Sending them outside to manage anything on their own tells them YOU can’t handle it and can’t be trusted to help them sort it out. [/quote]

God, you bIg fEeliNgS people are so absurd. You can have feelings. Since you are not a wordless infant, SCREAMING (not normal crying) is an unacceptable way to communicate those feelings. If you persist, your life will be made very boring until you stop.

And before you bother, yes, I have multiple kids, from a freshman in college to upper elementary. Yes, we have good relationships. Yes, they would tell you the same. Have we covered all the predictable retort bases?

Stop raising coddled children. The world doesn’t need more coddled adults.[/quote]

+1. I get really tired of that phrase on here. It's important to teach kids they can't do things like screaming when they are upset and that they need to calm down and use words to communicate. [/quote]

Some of us are able to teach our kids boundaries and emotional regulation without throwing them outside like dogs. That you equate empathy with weakness says a lot about you. [/quote]

Nothing wrong to give space to children to calm down. Are you stupid? They give space to kids with tantrums in daycares and centers too.  No ONE can ca lm down a tantrum. Be mindful just like adults, kids will learn to calm down by themselves[/quote]
