11: Setting Limits and Building Cooperation. With Patty Wipfler

Let me ask you a personal question...do you have trouble parenting on the same page as some of your parenting partners? If so, listen in for some guidance and strategies on this very subject.  A few years back I had the opportunity to interview Patty Wipfler for the first interview series called Be the Best Parent You Can Be. Today, I wanted to share this gem, for it is timeless in its advice and wisdom.   What we talked about: Why setting limits and building cooperation with respect is a colossal part of our role as parents How children's behavior is linked to whether they feel connected or not How when a child feels threatened their brain is no longer accessible Whether or not children successfully learn to cooperate without rewards and punishments Things to Remember: Like breakfast, children need a good warm hearty sense of connection in order to make it out into the world. - Patty Wipfler Parenting is emotional work. - Patty Wipfler   Click here for Show Notes and more from Jeanne-Marie Paynel, Your Parenting Mentor.
