You want your child to listen, cooperate, or handle disappointment better. So you think about what to do to make that happen: Should you be firmer? Validate first? Give a consequence? Explain it differently?
But what if what you say matters less than what your child's nervous system senses while you say it? When your child is already dealing with the discomfort of stopping a screen, getting ready for school, or hearing "no," your anxiety or frustration can become one more thing their brain has to manage. And that can make the behavior you're trying to change even harder to change.
In this episode, you'll hear: • Why your child may become less cooperative when you become more urgent, anxious, or angry • How to increase your influence without giving in, removing the limit, or making the situation comfortable • What it really means to speak to your child's nervous system instead of trying to stop their behavior
