I always try to do gentle parenting and I believe we do this. Just moments where I think how I could mange something a bit better for example:
I have three under four and a half. The eldest two 4.5/3 can have those days like any kid where they will not listen unless I eventually end up shouting.
I hate this, as they end up either mimicking me or just feeling the stress from it as do I.
They shouldn't just liste if I shout.
I usually try the calm option a couple of times then fail at his when they do the opposite or just refuse. I keep patience but then it results in me feeling cross and raising my tone.
How do you deal in this situation?
