Loving Your Child Enough to Say No to Inappropriate Demands: Strategies for Stopping Harmful Giving

As a parent, it's natural to want to give your child the best things in life. But sometimes, our good intentions can lead us down a path of giving our children things that harm them. We might give in to their demands, even when we know it's not good for them, simply because it's hard to say no. Our children might ask us with loving eyes or threaten us with tantrums or guilt trips. They often compare us to other parents, saying "all my friends have one" or "you're the only parent who says no". The truth is, giving in to these demands can ultimately hurt our children, rather than help them.

This course is designed to help you recognize the patterns of harmful giving and break the cycle. You'll learn strategies for resisting the temptation to give in to your child's demands, while effectively containing escalation. But this course is not just about saying no - it's about saying no in a loving way.
