Validating Feelings while Enforcing Boundaries in Parenting

In parenting, it is crucial to validate children's feelings while also establishing boundaries. It is acceptable for children to feel angry, but it is important to address inappropriate behaviors that may stem from those feelings.

This approach helps children feel heard and acknowledged, creating a safe environment where feelings are validated while behaviors are corrected with compassion and firmness.
