1 year agoThe concept of “tough love” can mean a lot of different things and dismissing it as having “no value” is painting with too broad a stroke.
In this specific instance, it’s helpful because kids need to learn at some point that they can’t always cry to get what they want. This absolutely has value because otherwise they continue that behavior as toddlers (and sometimes even past that if you keep enabling them…).
It might be harder to pull that off without making the phone thicker in the process, but still possible.
