Love and Logic Starts with a Hug
by Jim Fay and Charles Fay, Ph.D.LOVE
It takes a great deal of love to…
- Find the positives in our kids when they act poorly
- Hug them before we ask them about their homework
- Set limits without anger, lectures, or threats
- Hold them accountable for their poor decisions by providing empathy first and consequences second
LOGIC
When we give this special kind of love, a wise type of logic grows in their minds:
When I make poor decisions, it makes my life pretty sad. I wonder how my next decision will affect my life?
