Scrolling social media parenting advice can feel overwhelming—especially when you’re dealing with a defiant, disruptive, or out-of-control child.

In this episode, Bonnie and Thomas Liotta explain why taking things away and “punishing harder” often creates more confusion and more power struggles.

You’ll learn the difference between bribes vs goals, why kids lose the desire to cooperate, and how a simple “This, Then That” shift helps children build life skills, autonomy, and real cooperation.
