Whenever you ask these questions to yourself or to your child’s pediatrician or to an expert I think what you’re really asking is…
How do I get my child to stop doing something that I don’t like?
and/or
How do I PUNISH my child to get him to stop doing whatever it is that I don’t like?
But today I’m going to urge you to take a new look at discipline, a more positive look at discipline… a look at discipline that can extend beyond the current moment that you’re facing. A new look at...
One of the most common questions and concerns that parents have asked me is whether or not their kiddo will understand that his or her unwanted behavior is not okay when the parent “ignores” the unwanted behavior or does not provide direct attention to that unwanted behavior.
So today I’m diving into this question about whether or not your kiddo understands that his or her behavior is not okay and I’ll share how not providing direct attention to that unwanted behavior is, indeed, still parenting, even if your entire world has told you that it’s not.
Let’s head to the show!
You hear it talked about in the positive parenting world, you hear it talked about at your child’s daycare, you hear it talked about from your child’s pediatrician, and you hear it talked about in the online space as a way to prevent unwanted behavior and reduce the likelihood of those unwanted behaviors.
These are the thoughts and questions that we think to ourselves as we’re lying in bed at night, but we rarely speak them to another human being. So today on the show I’m...
So today on the show let’s chip into that gold to better understand this strategy of redirection: what it is, when to use it, how to use it, and why we use it, and, of course, I’ll share some personal examples from my own parenting of toddlers to help make things a bit more clear.
If you’re unsure about redirection as an effective strategy, this episode is for you. Let’s head to the show.
Boy, are you in for a treat today! I’ve had guests on the show before but it’s been quite a while since I’ve had another. Today on the show we are talking about the potty training method I used to potty train my almost two-and-a-half year-old son, but I didn’t potty train alone. My husband, Michael, was a big help and helped out with potty training on the weekends and when he wasn’t at work. So, of course, the guest on the show today is no one other than my husband, Michael.
For those of you who know me and my husband, you’re probably laughing because you know that with both of us on the show, this is going to be a pretty interesting episode. And for those of you who don’t know Michael, you will very quickly learn that Michael is a jokester, the sarcastic one, and the funny guy, while I lean more on the serious side of things…. Which you have probably already figured out. But the...
Hello, hello! Thank you for joining me on another episode of The Parenting Clubhouse podcast. I really am so happy that you’re here.
So let’s get right to it. What would it take for you to create the parenting life or family life you’ve always imagined? Big question isn’t it. I’ll ask it again. What would it take for you to create the parenting life or family life you’ve always imagined?
Today we are diving in deep to this question because I am on a mission to help you create that parenting life or that family life that you imagined. I WANT you to have that. And you deserve to have it. You can be happy in your parenting. You can enjoy your parenting life. I want you to find joy in your children again. I want you to have ease and certainty and confidence back in your parenting. Because when you have that, when you have that joy in your parenting, that’s when life changes....
Hey, hey! I’m so glad that you are back for another episode on The Parenting Clubhouse Podcast! And if this is your very first episode, welcome! I am so happy to have you! If you’ve caught the last two episodes you know that we’ve been talking about setting parenting goals. In today’s episode I’m kind of piggybacking off of the idea of setting those parenting goals by talking about going ALL IN with your parenting. If you know me or you feel like you know me pretty well from the podcast or from social media or from receiving my weekly emails, you know that I don’t do anything half-way. I just don’t. I hate it. And this is in parenthood, in business life, and in my personal life. It’s like I can’t do anything half-way. If I know I can’t give something my full effort, then I just won’t do it. Plain and simple. Why? Because I honestly don’t want to bother wasting my...
Hi there and welcome back to The Parenting Clubhouse Podcast. I’m so happy to have you join me! Today’s episode is about the REAL way to get your kid to do what you want. I know, you’re probably screaming right now saying, “Yes, please, give me the real way.” Because ultimately, we do want our kids to do what we want. We want them to follow our instructions. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have delivered the instruction in the first place. We want them to behave appropriately. We prefer no screaming, no running through the house, and no whining. We want our kids to be able to follow a schedule and transition from activity to activity with no problems... instead of throwing a major fit because TV time is over and we’ve got to get ready for dinner. So today I’m going to help you realize what the real way is to get your kid to do what you want, and the answer may just surprise. Oh goody!
And...
Hi there and welcome to The Parenting Clubhouse Podcast. How to avoid yelling… Maybe you’re thinking that it’s not possible, right? Maybe you feel that it’s simply not possible for you to avoid yelling because of a particular circumstance: you’re a single parent; you feel your child is the WORST behaved one out there; you feel like you don’t have the motivation to try a different strategy and cut out the yelling; you’ve tried it and it just doesn’t work; OR you’re over-tired, over-worked, and simply burned out. Well I’ve got some good news for you. It IS possible. You CAN avoid yelling. And, bonus, you CAN find more joy at home! And that’s what today is all about.
If you’re truly ready to ditch the yelling, check out my Regain Control course where you’ll learn specific strategies to use IN PLACE OF yelling that will help prevent the behaviors that...
Hello lovely parents! I’m so happy that you’re here joining me on The Parenting Clubhouse Podcast. Today, let’s chat about helping yourself FIRST in this parent-child dynamic, shall we? As parents, it is so EASY for us to put ourselves last – myself definitely included here and I’ll tell you how – but today I’m going to argue that we NEED to put ourselves first… and when we do, it not only helps us, it also serves our kids in a BIG way!
As a reminder, our Regain Control giveaway has ended and I’ll be announcing the three lucky winners on next week’s episode and via email… so stay tuned! Be sure to check out my Regain Control course at www.bit.ly/regaincontrolnow.
