Today’s Parenting Tip:

Decide:    You should pay attention to your fear. 

Practice:   Today, think about something you are afraid of. Decide whether it threatens your health or safety.

If it is hard for you to figure this out, talk with a trusted friend.

If you decide it is a serious threat, make a plan to get away from what you are afraid of.

Remember what this felt like so you can use it as a clue to help you know in the future when you should listen to your fear and get away.

Today’s Decide and Practice daily parenting tip was inspired by our featured picture book, LET’S GO, HUGO!  Read the book to a child in your life each day as a reminder of what you are deciding and practicing that day.

Come back each day for another good parenting decision and how to practice it. (Each day’s activity will also be posted on Daily Parenting Tips page for easy access.)
