Love Them!

Love Them without Fear or Anger!

This is the most important discipline tip.   

• You must genuinely care for the children in your life. 
• It needs to be unconditional.
• The younger the child the more they can read your mind.  If you are afraid, joyful, loving, happy,  prejudice, angry; children will know without any words.  
• Anger and all emotions are a CHOICE.  You truly can choose what emotion you will have when you deal with the children in your life. 
• Choose to be happy and positive.
• Practice loving unconditionally without fear, prejudice or anger.   It is magical!   
• Try to never React!  Everything will run smoother. 
• No one can do this 100% of the time.   

Good Luck!

• Happy
• Angry
• Sad
• Surprised
• Confused
• Excited
• Shocked

All emotions are okay, but we can’t hurt others, our friends or ourselves.

Discuss different ways for them to handle their anger, such as kicking a ball, painting a picture, having a quiet time by yourself, or talking it out.
