116. When Your Kid Won't Take "No" for an Answer


Listen Later

One of the most frustrating situations in parenting is when your kid just won't take "no" for an answer. Most of the time, our instinct is to explain back to them why we set a particular boundary and try to make them understand our reasoning. 

The problem with this response is that we're looking for our kids' approval and they are just not going to give it to us.
