Day 15 - Be firm..not harsh...

Setting Limits...

It really is a hard thing to do.  I mean, setting limits for your children, and sticking to those limits set is no fun at all! Not for kid or parent...am I right? It is tested time and time again, and then comes discipline. Ugh.  This is seriously my least favorite thing.  

How can  you be firm but not harsh? 

Remember what it is like to be a kid.  Remember pushing limits to see how far you can go and finding the best punishment that works for that particular child.  Be mindful that just because a certain punishment is what you got as a child, does NOT mean that is how you were intended to punish your own child. (Again, finding a common ground is trial and error sometimes)
