Despite what many in society say, children 
won’t be damaged by hearing the word “no,” 
particularly when it comes from their parents.

00:00:16,100 --> 00:00:23,600
In fact, parents will do more harm to their 
children if they choose not to discipline 
or provide boundaries.

00:00:23,700 --> 00:00:31,400
Dr. Meg Meeker notes, “If your child hears 
the word ‘no’ … they learn to impose those 
same boundaries on themselves,

4
00:00:31,500 --> 00:00:35,000
and that’s a critical transition for children 
to go through.”

00:00:35,100 --> 00:00:42,100
A child without parental boundaries is like 
a toddler with car keys and a license to 
drive.

00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:54,200
Growth has to occur and rules need to be 
followed before children can best understand 
how to navigate successfully through life.
