NO

Why “No” is a Complete Sentence: Setting Boundaries Without Guilt As parents, we often feel guilty for saying “no.” But setting boundaries isn’t about restriction—it’s about guidance. Children need to understand limits to develop self-discipline, emotional regulation, and respect. A firm yet loving “no” teaches them patience and the ability to handle disappointment. So, ditch the guilt! Saying “no” doesn’t make you a bad parent—it makes you a strong and intentional one.
