How to Reduce Sibling Rivalry
Tuesday Feb 21, 2023
Tuesday Feb 21, 2023
As parents, we often think that we need to step in between sibling arguments and rescue the child who is the victim of this aggressive behavior from their sibling, Today on the show I want to talk about using connection and empathy instead of shame and how this shift in how I handled these situations with my kids eventually helped them to think more clearly and even work things out without me.

Parenting Is an Endeavor in Changing Our Behavior Not Our Kids
Thursday Feb 16, 2023
Thursday Feb 16, 2023
We might think that it’s our role as parents to modify and correct the behavior of our kids, and we often do that by using rewards and punishments. But this is an archaic principle developed from lab tests with rats. Today Michelle talks about how being a parent is more about relationship management, and changing our own behavior and self-regulation is the key to influencing our kid's behavior.

Agreeable Kids Have Feelings Too
Thursday Jan 26, 2023
Thursday Jan 26, 2023
Sometimes it seems as if one or more of our kids doesn't have feelings, or is okay with anything. As if they are so easy in nature that nothing bothers them. Maybe that is true to some degree. Perhaps they are more easygoing personalities, but what if those feelings are there and just need a place to come out and space to be seen and heard?

Strong-Willed, Highly Sensitive Kids
Tuesday Jan 24, 2023
Tuesday Jan 24, 2023
Strong-willed kids are often sensitive, like my sweet Esme. These kids will make parenting using conventional ideas very challenging. Good for them to push back against the ideas of control and manipulation. Their internal workings tell them these tactics are attacks on their psyche. The problem is they come out fighting and then the circle of behavior begins with little hope of getting it to stop except through connection. Let's dive in and see just exactly how we can help these lovely beings.
