Your tongue is a wild animal that can do a ton of damage as your own scars can prove. We should never underestimate the pain that some angry or careless words can cause so here are some things that you should never say to your kids. First, never say, “Why can’t you be more like…?” Comparisons are toxic and they serve no positive purpose. Second, never say, “I don’t have time right now.” What we’re really saying is, “What I’m doing is more important than what you need.” Third, “I don’t think you can do it.” When you say that, what your child hears is, “I don’t believe in you.” If they take that belief away, the damage will be huge. Here are 9 things parents should never say to their children.
