WHEN RULES GET BROKEN, WHY LETTING KIDS WEIGH IN ON CONSEQUENCES WORK

I got a text from a new friend last week asking if we could walk and talk about a situation that had just come up with her high school daughter.

On the walk, she told me that her daughter had upgraded to Snap+ on her mom's credit card without asking permission. And it was six months before her mom even noticed. 

Her question for me: what consequence should there be? I asked her, in turn, if she had asked her daughter what consequences she thought should happen.

I go through what happened in today's blog, and get into why asking kids and teens what they think the consequences should be for rule breaks, ensures they're understood as part of the learning, not punishment for punishment's sake.
