What Part of 'No' Don't You Understand? Tweets of the Day 11/13/12

No? How can you say that?

Here is a quote from an excellent blog I read today called, "What Part of No Doesn't Your Child Understand?" by Dr. Laura Markham.

We can't say yes to everything our child wants. Sometimes we need to say No, for their own good, or for the greater good of the family or community. It's hard for children to accept big disappointments and weather that sadness. But when we allow them to feel their disappointment and love them through it, they learn that:

Sadness can be endured.
The sun will always come out tomorrow.
They can't control their circumstances, but they always have a choice about how to respond to make the best of a situation.
