Your Parenting Long Game

Episode 313: Plugging an “Influence Leak” - Lack of Predictability


Listen Later

As parents, we want to be able to influence our children. And we can feel helpless and out of control when we try to help our kids feel or act better… and we can’t make it happen. 

One of the most common ways that we “leak” influence happens on a day-to-day basis in the way we ask our kids to do things and in the way we respond to their requests.

Once you become aware of this leak, you can make a simple change and increase your influence immediately! 

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why some of our our requests and our responses immediately put our kids into fight-or-flight (and make them more resistant to us) 

  • An example that illustrates what this is like for your child that you will be able to relate to

  • Simple strategies to increase your influence and improve your relationship with your child
