At bedtime tonight, I was reading a book to Kimbal and Kim, when Juniper, angrily, stomps into the bedroom and yanks the book out of my hands. I was shocked. What would you do in this situation? I can tell you, I naturally wanted to get angry and punish Juniper. But would that have accomplished? Instead, I take a deep breath, and accept this situation as a learning opportunity.

Juniper won't stop sucking her fingers -- and they're getting very irritated. I try to use sticks, "stop sucking your fingers or else!" or carrots, "stop sucking your fingers and you'll get to watch TV," but nothing is working as a permanent solution. What do you do when your child won't listen do you? It's time for some storytelling, but nothing like you've ever heard before.

We have a challenge this morning. Juniper wants to go to the zoo, but for many, many reasons, we can't go today. I have to try to get her to want to go to the museum, but how do I do it -- especially when she's fixated on the zoo?

I thought I had it all figured out. Juniper and Kimbal had been working well for months: sharing food, sharing toys, holding hands, but all of a sudden, something has changed. Juniper is acting out -- throwing things, yelling, kicking, screaming. It's the rivalry -- the sibling rivalry. And somehow, I need to help Juniper and Kimbal thrive together.

How can you get your child to do what you want them to do without telling them to do it? Let's become Leonardo DiCaprio for the day and learn how to pull off inception on your kids.

I feel like everyday I proactively try to teach my children something new, but I often wonder, is everything I'm telling them going in one ear and out the other? In this episode, we explore a way to measure if your teachings are sticking with your kids.

If you weren't there to tell them to do it, would your kids eat their vegetables, brush their teeth, or clean their room? Today, Dave Lee teaches us how to instill intrinsic motivation in our kids so that we can stop policing them and instead enjoy them.

Kimbal wants to play with a puzzle box, but Juniper takes it from her. Instead of punishing Juniper or taking it away from her, I use it as an opportunity to teach empathy and eventually sharing.

Katy Wang from Mission Montessori joins us to listen to some real-world examples of getting the kids ready in the morning and gives us tangible methods to do better.

I saw a Dad on Twitter claim that his kids were "fighting over who gets to clean the toilet". No way I thought. But it worked and you too can have this power.
