Accept him for who he is without comparing him to others, and help him be his best self:.He learns to clean up his own messes, including emotional ones. Apologize when you mess up (because we all do!):.He learns that mistakes are part of growing Accept that he's an immature human who naturally makes mistakes:.Remember to empathize as you set limits, so he WANTS to follow them:.He learns from your modeling how to regulate his emotions. Resist lashing out at him even when you're "justifiably" angry:.He learns that he's not a bad person, just human. Stay lovingly connected to him even as you set limits on his behavior:.You may be wondering how you teach your child those things. Does your child know through her own experience that she's lovable, exactly as she is? That she isn't expected to be perfect, that she is already more than enough? That her anger, disappointment, frustration and sadnessĪre just part of being human, and that she can count on you to help her learn to manage those feelings so she doesn't have to act on them? That sheĭoesn't have to be, or do, anything in particular to earn our love?
