Handling Repeated Asking
When a child repeatedly asks a question even after receiving a 'no' answer, it is important for parents not to get hooked by responding or feeling frustrated. Instead, parents should acknowledge that the child heard the answer and resist the urge to repeat themselves. By not engaging with the repeated asking, parents can help bring an end to the behavior without actively ignoring the child.
