The 4 Essential Keys to Parenting Strong Willed Children
October 4, 2017 @ 6:00 am PDT
If you’re pulling your hair out because your child won’t respond to even the simplest of requests, welcome to the club.
Millions of parents struggle with kids who are defiant and strong-willed. Nothing can be more infuriating than giving so much to your kids, yet not feeling appreciated or respected.
You’ve been hoping they’d grow out of it but now things seem even more out of control. The constant conflict leaves everybody frustrated.
“You might be saying: Why won’t my child listen? We’ve tried everything and nothing works!”
But there is a way out — a path to turn things around. Like thousands of other beleaguered parents, you too can help your child become more happy and loving, even as they learn to listen better.
Integrating forty years of clinical practice with the latest findings from parenting studies and brain research, my approach to parenting defiant, strong-willed kids can help you to reduce conflict and have more fun together as a family. Best of all you’ll be able to resign (most of the time) from that role of “bad cop.”
In this 75-minute LIVE webinar you’ll learn four important keys to turn things around:
Key #1: Knowing their Nature
Strong-willed children are very special and unique, yet challenging in how reactive they can be. A combination of social, emotional, biological, and family systems factors needs to be assessed and integrated into an effective program for change.
Key #2: Handling Family Feelings
In order to turn things around, it’s essential to reduce anger and deal with emotional upsets in healthy and constructive ways. I’ll be sharing the latest brain research that has important implications for preventing and breaking negative cycles of interaction.
Key #3: Creating a Caring Climate
This key focuses on the creation of a positive atmosphere by using methods of modeling, praise and incentives, and by learning to pick your battles wisely. You’ll understand the value of offering choices and actually becoming less “attached” to outcomes.
Key #4: Setting Effective Limits
Strong-willed children also respond best to structure and consistency. You’ll learn how to provide healthy limits with age-appropriate consequences— an essential container for behaviors and feelings that helps kids feel less anxious and better about themselves
