These are some lessons we've talked about today that are close to my heart. In other words, things that my parents put into me and things that we do here at home. One is to allow your kids to disagree. Give them the space to not like it. You don't have to like it. You just need to understand it. It's a wonderful phrase, and it's allowing them to say, hey, we're going to connect with each other.

It's okay to not like it. I'm not going to force you to like it. Number two, kindness is a wonderful blanket over a lot of things, especially any conversations that they're having outside of your world. And three, allow your kid to have the arguments. Instead of this, don't argue with me. Now, I'm not saying allow backtalk. That's disrespectful. I'm not saying that whatsoever.

We don't allow sass. We don't allow backtalk. If you're gonna have a conversation, you're going to not wait until you're walking away to go, oh, this is the worst. My daughter does that. She will typically walk away, stomp upstairs and say, this is the worst. This is the worst day ever. That's what we get. That is not allowable behavior. But if you want to have a conversation, say, I do not agree.

I don't like this. This is why. These are wonderful conversations you need to have because overall, it's telling your child. or whoever you're raising in your life, that I am a safe space for you to express all things, all emotions, right in here. And this is the training ground for how I'm going to teach you before you leave and you go on to the next stage of life and I can't control it then.
