👨‍👩‍👧 Empowered Parenting for Stronger Families
Course overview
Lesson Overview

6.44 – Focusing on Behaviors, Not Identity: Labeling a child as “bad” damages self-worth and motivation. Parents must target the behavior, not the person. Saying “That action was unkind” teaches accountability without shame. This distinction protects emotional development while correcting mistakes. Over time, children learn they are capable of change. Behavior-focused correction encourages growth mindset and empathy. It keeps self-esteem intact even during discipline. Parents who separate identity from behavior raise confident problem-solvers. The message becomes: “You are good, but this choice needs improvement.” This approach nurtures responsibility rooted in love, not fear.
