React vs. Respond
The American College of Pediatricians has a good article about the difference between reacting versus responsding to kids.
Reacting means that you meet your child’s emotionally-charged behavior with your own emotionally-charged reply. Responding, on the other hand, gives your child permission to express their big emotions, ideas and feelings without criticism, shame or guilt.”
