Does it ever seem like children carry around a little book called, “Arguing for Fun and Profit?” To put an end to this draining behavior, experiment with repeating the same loving Love and Logic “one-liner,” regardless of what your child says. The key, of course, is to maintain a soft, empathetic tone of voice. Listed below are some examples:
- “I love you too much to argue.”
- “Probably so.”
- “I know.”
- “I bet it feels that way.”
- “What do you think you’re going to do?”
- “What did I say?”
- “I don’t know. What do you think?”
- “There’s no time for making kitten britches.” (Some of the most effective one-liners are really strange!)
