Excerpt:
“The purpose of redirection is not to punish our kids for their behavior choices but to help them take ownership of their behavior choices and become self-managers. It can be hard to make the transition from punishment to support in our heads and in our actions when our kids are misbehaving. But if we do, we will see a big difference in our interactions with them. Rather than fixing the problem with punishment, we respond to the child’s mistakes as an opportunity for teaching them skills.”
