How we can help our children solve problems in social situations
Today discussion focused on Kelso's Choice and how we help our children solve problems in social situations. Parents shared their experience of using the programme and noted that as parents we are sometimes too quick to jump in and solve the problem. We also reflected that we can often come to the defence of the younger sibling and expect the older one to use the choice circle.
The challenge is to strike the right balance between intervening and allowing the children to solve problems themselves. The programme suggests that children should try two choices first before speaking to an adult to help.
