One of the ways to act like a super nanny with your kids is to remain calm, even when you’re not in the eye of the storm. If children know they can upset you, they begin to think they’re in control, instead of you. This article gives you some ideas for responding like a super nanny when your child says to you in loud, plain language, “It’s not fair!”
The only thing you have to do is to:
- remain calm
- Remember your child is not happy with you right now
- Don’t put salt into his or her wounds by being upset, angry or sarcastic
- Look at your child with understanding eyes (not angry ones)
- And softly say these two words and ONLT these two: “I know”.
Whatever comes out of your child’s mouth to explain why he or she should be allowed to do something you aren’t giving approval for, you simply respond with, “I know.”
You don’t have to defend yourself and try to convince your child your decisions are fair. Nope. Instead, you simply acknowledge what they are saying (since that is what they believe at that moment in time) by saying the magic words, “I know.” Try it and feel the confidence of a super parent!
