Have you ever experienced your child telling you, 'You're mean. I don't like you!' or saying a friend/brother is mean, when she doesn't get what she wants?

It hurts, and you start wondering if you are failing as a mom. I get it. I've been there, friend. 

We can often end up in long lectures about how that kind of language, “isn’t nice” - which really just focuses on what NOT to do. 

Do you ever notice your kids glaze over, or tune you out?  Maybe they even just respond with a goofy response that is completely unrelated to the situation.  These are all super common responses because the child doesn’t know what he CAN do, instead. 

This week’s episode at the Sustainable Parenting Podcast is decoding this situation, so you can easily understand it better, and respond effectively. 

BY THE TIME YOU'RE DONE LISTENING, YOU'LL KNOW:

  • What not to say when your child says, "You're mean or someone's mean."
  • A simple, clear recipe for how to effectively respond.
  • A simple, clear script to rephrase your child's immature words and guide her into a more mature way to express her feelings.
