Quote

Letting your child learn to exercise free will doesn’t mean being permissive. It means allowing her to choose badly and to learn from the choices she makes. How to start? She can’t learn to make choices unless she has some. Begin by giving her a chance to mess up…..For a child, the best lesson in remembering to check to see if her lunch bag is in the backpack is a few hunger pangs at noon.
