EDITOR ’ S PICK

Lead with kindness and firmness . It ’ s not that positive parents have different boundaries , it ’ s that we set them differently . There is still no hitting , no pulling the cat ’ s tail , no throwing toys at your baby brother ’ s head , but when we set boundaries , we come alongside our children rather than at them . This means you are very clear about what you expect and what you will accept , but you ’ re also respectful and kind , honoring your child as a person , too .
