Discipline Tip 🙌🏻communication reframe•

Instead of just saying NO, tell them what you want to see them do instead. Shift the no into what you want to see the behavior look like. This helps to set them up for success and teach them appropriate expectations.

It is normal to say no, so don’t stress about that word but practice following it up with a statement about what to do next. Instead of saying, don’t hit me. Follow it up with, we use gentle hands. Can you show me gentle hands? You are going to say no but work on this communication reframe to provide a teaching moment 🙌🏻
