Case Study: What to Do When Your Child Says "No" to Everything
What do you do when a nine-year-old flat-out refuses to take a shower? How might giving your child more autonomy reduce daily power struggles? In today's episode, we dive into these nuanced dynamics of connected parenting.
Joining me today is Jade, a dedicated mother juggling a blended family and her journey into connected parenting. Jade shares her struggle with her strong-willed nine-year-old daughter who challenges the status quo by simply saying, "No." Together, we explore the beauty of natural consequences, the search for autonomy in adolescence, and the importance of connection over control.
In This Episode:
- Embracing natural consequences over artificial punishments
- Supporting your child's search for autonomy
- Prioritizing connection to improve cooperation
- Guiding with questions instead of dictating
- Empowering children through their own decision-making
