Summary

FAFO Parenting Will NOT Work With Strong-Willed Children #452 "F* Around & Find Out" is the classic idea that you allow your child to learn from the natural consequences of their actions. It makes sense in theory. But it will NOT work with our kids. This approach can backfire badly and cause more damage than you think. It is critical to understand your child's very nature so you don't create more power struggles. This is the FINAL week of our Winter Sale on the Get Everything Package.
