Be A Brat!

tempertantrumI just heard a collective gasp from all of the parents. No, I haven’t lost my mind and yes it is okay for your child to be a brat. Trust me, just keep reading.

No matter how diligent a child’s awareness, let’s face it, a child is a child and often times they lose focus. If the unthinkable happens and your child is grabbed by an attacker teach them they must fight and scream for help with every ounce of energy in their being! Under no circumstances should the child ever willingly cooperate with a kidnapper no matter what they threaten.

If you scream I will hurt you.”   …SCREAM!
“If you fight I will hurt your mom”  … FIGHT!

In the face of this threat let your child know that everything they do is okay! Scream, Fight, Scratch, Bite, Break Things! Be the biggest pain in the neck , brat of child they can be – and it is okay! Let your child know it is allowed and they won’t get in trouble no matter what they do or say!
