Video insights

@mike_on_parenting's TikTok video "We spend so much time trying to get our kids to behave better… But what if we spent more time asking: “What skill does my child need to learn here?” Giving up a toy isn’t just about sharing. It’s practicing flexibility and letting go of control. Handling a big emotion isn’t just about calming down. It’s practicing how to move through frustration without letting it control you. Hearing “no” isn’t just about obedience. It’s practicing disappointment. Repairing after an argument isn’t just about saying “sorry” It’s practicing how to maintain relationships. Waiting isn’t just about patience. It’s practicing delayed gratification. And solving their own problems isn’t just about making our lives easier. It’s practicing confidence and independence. These skills don’t magically appear when they become teenagers or adults. We build them through hundreds of small moments while they’re growing up. So the next time your child is struggling, instead of only thinking: “HOW DO I GET THEM TO STOP?” Try asking: “What skill can I help them practice right now?” 💯 #positiveparenting #parentingadvice #parentingtips #parentcoach #parentingsupport" has 1,630 views, 63 likes, 0 comments, 11 shares in the public metrics captured by this index.
