    Do you have a child who walks into a room with a single-minded focus declaring they're going to do something…without even asking your permission? Do you have a child who just HAS TO complete this project before they go to bed, even though it’s now well past bedtime? You reasonably say no to their request and then it sets off a huge power struggle, meltdown and argument. So how can you handle these situations without losing your mind or your relationship? How can you get kids to be MORE responsible? Listen to this episode and you’ll have several options and scripts.

  • 10 Insights into Strong-Willed Kids You Must Know & Accept #497
    Jul 9 2025

    Do you have a child who must touch the hot stove, resists what you want first, refuses to do chores or anything the easier way? Who is not immediately obedient, doesn’t respond to consequences, appears self-centered, won’t show math work, does the bare minimum to get by, won’t push through when things get hard? Good! I want to show you how to work with these traits instead of fighting them all the time. So you can actually enjoy your kids and your family life.

These podcasts are brilliant. They were recommended by a friend and I wish I had found then sooner. The podcasts make complete sense and make you think about things differently in everyday situation, and implement little changes that really can help.

Fantastic
