Answer the “why’s”
Me: don’t cross the yellow line She: Why? Me: Just say OK She: Why? Me: JUST SAY OK!!! She: OK, why I can’t cross the yellow line? Me (to my self): she didn’t care about saying ok… For my young daughters “just because”, “just do it” and “because I say so” are no longer valid. They want an explanation in order to understand the instructions. Many times I will not explain, but for the most part I want t o build a communication channel with them. Specially now that they are growing Specially now in these days Someone said this: Between him and me there’s more of a friendship relationship than a father-son relationship… That’s what I want for my daughters.
