How can adults determine the appropriate level of firmness for responding to a specific misbehavior?

What will be an ideal response?


Responses should be as firm as necessary to protect children from harm and to protect the basic rights of others, but as gentle as possible while still achieving those ends. For example, if an adult must carry a child kicking and screaming away from a dangerous situation, the adult should speak gently and calmly to the child, softly reassuring the child with statements such as "I know you feel angry, but I care about you and need to keep you safe. When you feel calm, we'll find you something safe to play with.".
