What to Do When Your Child Often Says No

what-to-do-when-your-child-often-says-no

As parents, we all want our toddler to be cooperative and obedient, but sometimes it can be frustrating when they constantly say “no.” While it’s normal for children to assert their independence, it’s crucial to teach them the importance of following rules and being respectful.

Here are some tips that can help parents handle their child’s “no’s” in a positive way: 

  • Stay calm
    It’s easy to get frustrated when your child is difficult to handle, but staying calm and patient is crucial. Yelling or getting angry will only make the situation worse.
  • Give choices
    Instead of asking your child to do something, give them options. For example, “Do you want to put on your shoes or coat first?” This way, your child will feel like they have some control and be more likely to cooperate.
  • Be consistent
    Set clear rules and consequences for your child’s behavior, and stick to them. Children thrive on routine and consistency, so they will be more likely to follow the rules if they know what to expect.
