Strong Willed Children
What’s a parent to do when their child is bound and determined to have their “way”?
1st—Establish clear boundaries
2nd - Maintain those boundaries
Parents need to put prayer and thought into what their children’s boundaries are. Then those boundaries should be communicated clearly to the children. Children will test those boundaries. Those rules must not change when tested. Now, as a child grows older the boundaries may be adjusted. A teen can be included in the discussion of boundaries. Once the boundaries are established then maintain the rules.
