I especially appreciate your open handed attitude - praise isn't verboten, it's just to be used sparingly. Love the chocolate cake analogy. I found this blog because I'm looking into training and certification, but I'm delighted to have discovered it simply as a parenting resource, too! Thanks and please keep up the great work. (While I'm posting, can I make a request? Can you post a blog entry about how to address when a child is having difficulty telling the truth? I know I need to be someone with whom she's not afraid or intimidated to be truthful... Other ideas and suggestions? A comprehensive post about helping a child to move from falsehoods to truth-telling would be so valuable. Many thanks! And feel free to delete the parenthetical part of this comment if and when you approve it for posting. Thanks!)<BR/><BR/>~Christine G.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
