I recently reviewed all my Parenting with Love and Logic info and came up with this quick reference list. I wanted all my one-liners in one place! I thought some of you would like this list too.
I love you too much to argue!
Probably so
I know
Nice try
I bet it feels that way
What do you think you're going to do
I don't know. What do you think?
Bummer. How sad.
Thanks for sharing that.
Don't worry about it now
That's an option
I bet that's true
Maybe you'll like what we have for the next meal better.
I'm not sure how to react to that. I'll have to get back to you on it.
I'll let you know what will work for me.
I'll love you wherever you live.
I will be happy to talk to you as soon as your voice sounds like mine.
It really drains my energy when…
It juices me back up when…
Oh… how sad.
What a bummer…
Are you going to settle down, or do you need to spend some time in your room?
Can you use a quiet voice in here or would it be best for you eat outside so you can yell?
Do you think you can play with that nicely, instead of hitting your brother with it?
