Thank you for this beautiful graphic.

Hearing no can be very triggering for us as parents. We have a huge responsibility to care for them & keep them safe, and when we don't have their cooperation, this can be highly triggering. However, if we want our children to be able to set appropriate boundaries with others, they need to be able to set boundaries with us first.

If your child says "no" you can still respond in a compassionate way that respects their answer. Here are a few tips on dealing with NO:

(1) Give empathy (i.e., I hear you don't want to do that)

(2) Offer them a choice (i.e., Would you like the red cup or the blue cup.)

(3) Don't react right away. Give them and yourself space and come back to it when emotions aren't running so high and try your request again

(4) Consider their no. Maybe their request is legitimate (we can get stuck in the loop of saying no and entering power struggles) and maybe they're simply looking for some autonomy. Maybe it's ok to let them pick their own outfit for the day? Maybe they HATE spinach but they do like another type of veggie?

Thank you for this reminder

This lesson really starts when children are allowed to fully express their feelings and are not punished for them. It doesn't mean we don't have limits or consequences, it means we separate the behaviour from their emotions.

Discipline means to teach not punish. We can't be a source of fear and a source of connection at the same time. When children make poor choices we need them to look to us for guidance and safety not to turn away from us in fear of retribution.
