Are you using Santa to manipulate your child’s behavior?

"You better not pout, you better not cry"...

 

"He's making a list, checking it twice. He's gonna find out who's naughty or nice"...

 

"He sees you when you're sleeping. He knows when you're awake. He knows when you've been bad or good so be good for goodness sake."

 

Today, I dive into all of the issues with these lyrics, including how it can create specific negative inner dialogue about our children and their behavior/emotions, the side effects of labeling a child based on behavior, and the importance of not utilizing Santa as a behavior manipulating tool.

 

This may be a challenging conversation, but I encourage you to really start bringing the unconscious thoughts and the patterns that follow what's always been done/do what you're told or what makes everyone else comfortable decisions to consciousness. Pause, reflect, and then decide if you want to continue in the same way, change things slightly or complete overhaul what you are doing.
