No is NOT a four letter word!
No, as negative as it is, is not a negative word. Wow that was an interesting sentence!
It is important to say “no” to our children. To every positive there is a negative. To every yes there is a no.
No is not a punishment. It is an instructive word.
Parents please don’t be afraid to use it. But back it up. Don’t just use it and not follow it through. Think before you say it.
You know it is not bad to say no to ourselves as well! “NO don’t have that last piece of cake!” “ No do not gossip.” “No get off the phone and read to the kids”
Ok that’s all I have to say about the matter! Enough negative for one day! We have been busy here at Gileads Balm so our writings have slacked off. Sorry. Do any of you have any topics that you want me to write on?
Blessings!
Marnie.
