Read a parenting book:
1. Develop autonomy, let the child find out her own answers instead of feeding her with information.
Sharleen was asking me "why did xxxxx".
I lifted the answer off the book "Why do u think it is this way?".
"No, I'm asking u, why u ask me back???"
2. Give the child his wishes in fantasy (when it cannot be fulfilled)
"Where is that place? I want to go!" (That's Disneyland on TV)
"I wish we are there now, playing with Mickey..."
"No, I want really go, not imagine!"
No textbook answers for raising children. 一种米养百种人
