When your child hits the dog with a stick and you take that same stick and hit your child… — @drdeborahparenting

Video insights

@drdeborahparenting's TikTok video "When your child hits the dog with a stick and you take that same stick and hit your child back, watch what the child experiences. Hitting was answered with hitting. So the behavior you want to stop became part of the response. Here's what to do instead. The moment your child hits, take the stick and move them away from the dog. Say once: "Hands must be safe." Then pause their access to the dog and the activity. That gives your child a clear connection between what they did and what happens next. Hitting changes access. Safe interaction allows them to return. And you do not have to raise your voice, repeat the rule, or match the behavior to make the boundary clear. Your action makes the boundary clear. That is the Safe Hands Protocol. If you want to know exactly what to do when your child hits, get the Parenting OS. #ParentingTips #ParentCoach #ParentSupport #ParentingCommunity #Parenting" has 270,845 views, 6,482 likes, 1,389 comments, 592 shares in the public metrics captured by this index.
