There are three words we can say to our children which can negatively influence them and in this episode we give 3 tips to counteract them. These tips include catching yourself saying the words, how to simplify your life so you don\u2019t say the words, and getting accountability for saying the words with your partner. Kids ask for all kinds of things and often we are required to tell them \u201cno,\u201d which can become overwhelming for them if we do it too much. We also often tell them to wait a minute, which makes them feel they aren\u2019t a priority, so we need to be conscious of when and why we do this.

\u201cI know when I have the discipline to do these things, there\u2019s joy in our house. The kids have joy, I have joy, and everyone feels like they\u2019re enjoying themselves. When I lose the self discipline to do the things, it robs the joy from the house.\u201d 20:44
