It's hard work to give in

Post: It's a common sight, parents giving in and letting their kids have their way. Sometimes, it's just easier isn't it? Often, children try to use the leverage of an awkward place such as a restaurant or grocery store. Or, they begin having a meltdown until mom and dad break. The short term effects of giving in probably won't be perceptible. However, each time a child feels that this approach will work, they feel emboldened to do it again. A lifetime of truly difficult parenting lies ahead for anyone using the short cut of giving in to a child's demands. Do the hard work of saying no now, and you will reap the future benefits of peace.
