asked listeners whether it is ever acceptable to discipline someone else’s child – or even say something to the other parent in public.columnist Alison Curtis wrote that nearly all her friends have experienced ‘awkward and stressful’ situations where children were misbehaving and they didn’t know whether they should speak out.listener Alison from County Meath said she has strong feelings on the topic as a mother and a psychologist.
“Kids tend to do well when they can, so if they're not doing well, there's always a reason for that.”Alison said experts advise parents to “come down to their child’s level” in that scenario and help them ‘co-regulate’ their feelings.“Then, if you do need to enforce the boundary, you do that. You know, ‘I won't let you push so and so down the slide’ and you take them away and you deal with the feelings that might come with that.
