How Not to Talk to Your Kids (2007)
- musicale 2y agoWow, you must have worked really hard on your physical appearance today.
- j7ake 2y agoWhen kids are young, praise for process/effort rather than the outcome.
- daniel-s 2y agoIMO that applies for adults too.
- j7ake 2y agoAs professionals though, you are paid by outcome not process. If plumber comes and works hard but doesn’t fix my problem, I won’t be praising them no matter how hard they worked. Process must be internally valued by a professional so they can keep improving their craft, but no one will reward you for it until you show results.
- nightowl_games 2y agoTrue, in a commercial transaction, but within friends and family, praising effort is still important.
