When a child "won't" do something
If the task is too hard, make it a little easier. No need to do express disappointment. Maybe they really CAN’T yet. Maybe they need more practice. Maybe they need it to be just a little easier. How are you going to make things easier this school year??? For you and them. Some of my favorite ways: slip on shoes forever headbands are any girl mom’s friend socks downstairs in a drawer by the door stool to reach food music to energize everyone

Why Did I Get Such a Difficult Child? Maybe There's a Reason. | Simply on Purpose
Some days as parents are just hard. We don't see the behavior we would like to. We struggle to connect with a child. We wish a certain child didn't have a hard time with X, Y, or Z. BUT, it will all be for our good. We are being refined as parents by every interaction with our children. Every time we can see the good, be compassionate, or stay in control, we are becoming better. So we might not always get the children we want, but we ALWAYS get the children that we need.
