RE: The Jedi Mind Trick - A preschool story
It depends on the intention behind the suggestions. I shared in another reply how this method is perfect for me. I can be like a distracted child with ADHD. I'm in a hurry to go to the next thing and stop paying attention to what I'm doing. When someone points out something I've forgotten and know to do. I naturally do the right thing. I don't need to be shamed into doing it. But given the way that I was brought up, I'm more susceptible to feeling shame if the wording of the sentence that brings my attention back is to similar to how I was shamed in the past.
It's just a nicer way of talking to people, really. Ordering folks sucks.
