One strategy that I used with my children was “Try 3 before me.” They had to employ 3 problem solving strategies before they brought the problem to my attention. However, they knew that there were situations that required my immediate attention. Discussions always followed those particular situations.

I truly believe that we must teach our children to problem solve.

What battles do you let your children fight? Does this develop a behavior in your children to defer to you for resolutions What happens you are continuously unsuccessful? Will this impact your child’s opinion of you or does the fact you showed up outweigh the results?
