@mike_on_parenting: Most of us hear the word “consequence” and immediately think of punishment. But that’s not what a consequence actually is. A consequence is simply what happens after a behavior. Yes, there are times when losing a privilege makes sense. But if that’s the only consequence your child experiences, you’re missing one of the most powerful ways to shape behavior. Ask yourself: 👉 What happens after they share without being asked? 👉 What happens after they handle disappointment well? 👉 What happens after they clean up the first time you ask? 👉 What happens after they speak respectfully? The behaviors that receive attention, connection, responsibility, trust, and opportunities tend to grow. Don’t just create consequences for the behaviors you want to stop. Create meaningful consequences for the behaviors you want to see more of. If you’re looking for practical ways to build better behavior without constant power struggles, comment CALM and I’ll send you the details of my Calm Parenting Playbook. #parentingtips #parentingadvice #parentcoach #parentingsupport #parentingsupport Calm Parenting, parenting partner, parenting child relationship, family dynamics, parenting coach
