Does your client or child have a difficult time accepting no and waiting? We’re getting a lot of questions regarding these two issues. So today I have answered a question from our online community about how to teach a child to accept no when they can’t have something and to wait for something when they can have it.

So, say your child loves balloons. You go somewhere where there are balloons, but the child isn’t allowed to have them because the balloons are somebody else’s. Your child then is freaking out because he wanted the balloons and was told no. That’s one example of a point where a child needs to accept being told no.

He also could want too much of an item like chocolate or bread, or perhaps he’s allergic to something. He may want your phone, but you don’t want to hand them your thousand dollar phone because you’re afraid that they’re going to break it.

Another related issue is waiting. Maybe they can have your phone, but they have to wait or maybe they can eat the pizza, but you have to cook it first or make it first. And so there’s this waiting for things you want, or accepting no flexibly and not crying and screaming and flopping on the ground. These are all related issues to today's video blog which I'll be diving into!
