Shaming is an AMAZINGLY effective way to elicit the behavior you want in your children.How can I be so sure?Sadly, I've been there, done that, even though I know it can be SO destructive to our children's self- esteem and self-worth and is at the heart of so many mental health challenges.But there is SUCH a better way!It's called "Celebrating" and it is POWERFUL in helping our children to not only modify their behavior, but to focus on and understand, at the deepest level, that we love them and value them for who they are, regardless of their behavior.
