Who knew parenting could feel like negotiating with a small, unpredictable dictator? If you're nodding in agreement right now, you're not alone.

This week, we had the pleasure of inviting  Carrie Conrad, founder of www.BeatingDisaster.com, to share her invaluable insights on handling argumentative children and navigating challenging parenting conundrums. Forget about winning the immediate battle, Carrie encourages us to focus on the long-term war - the ultimate goal of shaping our child's behavior.

She's all about leading by example and defusing ticking time bombs before they explode.

 Carrie unwraps her expert strategies on managing sibling rivalry and staying clear of conflicts while still laying down guidelines. She places emphasis on feeding our kids with ample love and connection, so they won't seek it in wrong places.

It's an enlightening talk filled with practical advice on dealing with everything from toddler tantrums to teen angst, and how to ensure safety in relationships both at home and outside. Don't miss this empowering conversation with Carrie Conrad.
