I think it safe to say that all parents see their child as a gift, however, just how big a gift they really see them as, might be a tad underestimated. If you have a strong-willed or controlling child, a child who doesn't listen, one who procrastinates or forgets things, one who is sensitive or anxious perhaps, in fact, any make up at all, the gift in this, for us having to deal with it, is HUGE. But only if we are brave, courageous and bold enough to see it for what it really is. If you want to understand this more, and raise your parenting bar as a result of it, then tune in because the gift goes way beyond what you think...
In this episode, I read the poem, The Gift by Dr Shefali Tsabary - found in her amazing book The Awakened Family, page 175 and 176

We spend so much time worrying about the fact our kids don’t listen to us, yet rarely do we stop and ask ourselves, “How good am I at listening”? The braver we can be in admitting that sometimes our behaviour as parents might be questionable, the better we can become at raising our bars. When we can do this, things truly change for the better. Tune in and hear what you can do to make a difference and step it up a gear…

Before we go any further, IT’S OKAY. You are not alone; we have all done it and do a really good job of it! However, there are things we “should” do and get good at off the back of it all and in today’s show, I talk you through it. This is not to be missed. And please, if you haven’t already listened to episodes 611 and 612, listen to them first as they are an important piece of it all. Curious? Tune in…

For me, this is my number one goal in parenting. I think that it is one of THE, if not the most important thing we can hope to do, try to do more, and become really good at. Realistically, I don’t think it is possible to never lose your shit – we are human after all. However, if you want to get better at this and hone the skills needed to do it well, then this one is for you. Do make sure you listen to episode 611 first though. And next time, I will be talking about what to do when you’ve lost your shit!! Stay tuned…

No matter what you do, you end up losing it! You keep calm for so long and boom... you snap. If you are a regular listener of the show you'll know that I don't believe it's your kids who trigger you! Their behavior in the moment ignites a previous emotional experience within you (the actual trigger) from when you were a child where you were not seen, heard, understood, made to feel you were good enough or matter or a combination thereof. LONG story... so what do you do? In this episode I talk about the behavior and what you can do in the moment. In part 2, next week, I will talk about what you can do to prepare for these moments. Curious? Tune in...

It is all too easy to get drawn into an argument with your child, however, it rarely works. Actually, I might go as far as saying that it NEVER works. So, what typically happens when this occurs in your home? Do you:
A: Argue Back
B: Take it Personally
C: Shout and Get Mad
D: Right the Right to be Right
E: All of the Above?
In the show today, I discuss what we should do and how when we do this we will remain connected to our kids versus becoming reactive and disconnecting from them. Curious? Tune in…

What do you do when your kid refuses to see things through the same lens as you? They come up with all sorts of crazy ideas and reasons to try and get their way because the bottom line is usually this: they don’t want rules and limits regarding their internet use and they know themselves just how addicted they are to their phones so anyone who tells them to get off them is a threat to their very existence. Their phones are their lifelines so how do we get our kids to drink our tech plan Kool-Aid? Curious? Tune in…

“Controlling” our kid’s media diets through limiting their mobile data is fast becoming a thing of the past. So how on earth do we hope to do it when so many of the plans are all inclusive and unlimited? I’m going to be 100% honest here and say that it’s hard and the older your kids are, the harder it’s going to be. Period. There are, however, ways to do it and in today’s episode, I discuss them all.

Are you a good negotiator? Have you actually ever thought about it related to parenting? The bottom line is this: being really good at negotiating is an extremely useful skill to have in your parenting toolbox. In this episode, I discuss this, the importance of negotiating, scheduling and accounting for your child’s time in relation to how many potential hours there actually are for being online. And the rules. Yes, there have to be rules! I think that these three steps are genius and oh so helpful for parents. Curious? You should be, so tune in to part 5 in my podcast bookclub series on the book, The Tech Diet for your Child and Teen by Brad Marshall.…
