10 Ways to Practice Peaceful Parenting
Model Positive Behavior
- Notice your anger reaction. Practice: Pause. Breathe. Think. Respond.
- Allow them to know when you need a moment to cool down.
- Name your feelings so they understand emotions beyond “sad” and “angry”.
- Be aware of how you talk in the car, on social media or in arguments.
- Apologize when you make a mistake.
Intentional Habits
- Each day as a family, share something you’re grateful for.
- Recognize their accomplishments and focus on positive behavior.
- Set aside time to talk with them about their experiences.
- Sing their favorite songs together, color them a picture, or write them a special note.
- Practice self-care so you have enough energy to care for others.
