Use Love, Logic & Firmness

CHILDREN ARE CRYING OUT for love. Many adults are, too. Love is best demonstrated by loving discipline, by saying, “No, you cannot. This is potentially harmful, and I love you too much to allow you to hurt yourself.” This lesson teaches that rules exist to keep everyone safe. Following up on a rule is sometimes very uncomfortable for the adult. Often, it might be easier to let it slide.

If you really love someone, you will teach him he is worth the effort by keeping him safe and insisting that he act appropriately. Being firm and fair shows the depths of your love and concern. It’s difficult to rebel when someone is tender and expressing deep feelings, while telling you that what you want to do will not be allowed because it is not safe or appropriate.

I love you
no matter what.
I will love you
if you are stupid,
if you slip and fall on your face,
if you do the wrong thing,
if you make mistakes,
if you behave like a human being –
I will love you no matter.
