How do you mommas feel about your child/children telling you no? A lot of parents are strict on their kids telling adults no... I feel like if it makes sense I’m fine with it unless it’s serious then I’m not. But to tell your child never to tell adults no what if it’s something serious but they say yes because you have taught them to never say no🥴

I teach my kids that their voice and opinions matter. They just have to do it in a respectful way and remember that even though they voiced that opinion doesn’t necessarily mean their opinion will be the final deciding factor. I don’t silence them because one day they’ll have to be in society and stand alone with a voice to be heard.

@dontblockmesis-imjustspeakingfacts, yess but you want everyone to be on board... that way no one is confusing her on what to listen to & what not to listen to so I definitely stand my ground.. the way she raised me has me shut odd &afraid to even talk about my feelings with anyone so... I’ll pass on old school 🤣

I’m not saying she is right. I just know those old school parents were raised different and they believe children have no say and they stay in a child’s place. My friend and I had this talk to. She thinks until they get a job and pay bills they don’t have any say. I feel like as a human, your human at that, you should want them to express themselves and teach them it’s okay to feel things and have opinions. Don’t shut them out or down. Having a job and paying bills doesn’t put you on a higher rank or make you any better. And it doesn’t make your voice can’t any more than the next.

My son tells me no to every thing even if I tell him he has to go eat dinner. I do tell him that he can say no to certain things and certain people however if I tell you to do something and you tell me no then yes I get upset about it.

Theres a difference in saying no ro be defiant, or saying no because they feel uncomfortable, or doesnt like something, etc.
I only get upset when he tells me no to be defiant.
