In this advice column, Ashley Holt addresses a reader's concern about her sister, who is stressing the family dynamic. The author suggests a somewhat unconventional method of confronting the issue by utilizing principles reminiscent of Supernanny's techniques. The approach involves redirecting disruptive kids to their mother at family gatherings, emphasizing the importance of establishing boundaries and conveying how the sister's behavior affects others. The aim is to lead to a productive conversation, making the sister aware of her role in the family dynamics.
At the next family gathering, whenever a kid is about to hurt themselves or is being disruptive in front of you, take them straight to their mother.
You have to correct this habit in this way, because she needs to understand in real-time how her actions affect other people at family events.
