You hold the line on snack time. Your child looks right at you and says I hate you. it stings the most of us have been there. Here’s what 30 years in the classroom taught me is almost never hate. It’s frustration. That you’re being the parents and that means the boundary is working. The hard part is staying calm and not handing over the snack to make the feeling stop. That’s how kids learn a meltdown gets results So tell me what is the line you use when you say not now dinner time in an hour? And what do you say back? Share it below. Someone else needs to hear that they’re not alone.

Wait was a win for you during the month of September?
