The prohibition for children often seems like something radical and necessarily rude.
American psychologists have developed the three baskets method for better interaction with the child.
Red basket
This basket is needed for those things, actions and requests from the child, which are automatically prohibited. Such categorical prohibitions relate to situations that are dangerous to the life or health of the child, for example, it is impossible under any circumstances to cross the road at a red light. You can't go anywhere with a stranger like that, and this is without options and is not discussed.
Yellow basket
There are questions that require additional discussion. For example, going to school. Yes, the education system can significantly spoil the psyche of your child. Especially at an early age. Let him be at home for a couple of days and enjoy the freedom. He will thank you with his radiant smile.Green basket
