This is a parenting principle I’ve heard from the Conscious Discipline crowd: tell your kid what to do rather than what not to do. They don’t have the presence to immediately know a better alternative to what they’re doing, and all they can think about is what they’re told not to do. So most likely they will continue doing that.
Mr Chazz talks about this a couple minutes into this parenting analysis: https://tankie.tube/w/sKdHBXjZ8cTqbxsJC8cJxe
That's how i try to frame things with my kids whenever I can. I ket them know what i want them to do rather than just telling them to stop what they're doing
