6 Phrases That Teach Your Daughter Her Opinion Matters (from toddler to 20s) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When She Finally Got A Word In“Mommy, but I CAN’T clean up my toys right now! You’re NOT listening to me!”That was my daughter, four years old, mid-meltdown, arms flailing, because I had asked her (okay, insisted) that she put her toys away. Frustration got the best of me and I said the thing every parent says right before it backfires: “I’m the parent. YOU listen to ME.”Cue the full-scale meltdown, now. Sobbing, flailing, the whole production. (If you have a daughter, you know the production. I

She’d tried the cold plunge, the gratitude journal, the 5am wake-up club, the boundaries book everyone was talking about.

Let’s start with two stories. And if you’re nodding along, you’ll want to keep reading.1. Bella.Bella’s parents came to me because her teacher had told them she was “very sensitive,” and was worried about her emotional reactions at school. If the teacher asked her to lower her volume during snack time, Bella would burst into tears and stick her head inside her desk, sometimes for the rest of the lesson.
