Hand in Hand Parenting: The Podcast
Society & Culture
What role do consequences play in your parenting?
On this week's Podcast for Parents Abigail and Elle talk about when consequences become punishments.
Are Consequences Punishment?
Natural consequences sound like a good idea - and can be wonderful - but often when we, as parents, get involved in issuing consequences they can get skewed and become a punishment. We talk about the differences between natural consequences and the leap it can take to handle them calmly and consequences that become punishments and why they aren't as helpful.
Join us as Elle and Abigail delve into their own choices around consequences and how they discovered what worked and what didn't!
Covered on the podcast this week:
