Have you ever felt like there's a constant battle between you and your kids?

Like, asking them to pick up the toys only leads to meltdowns and attitudes out of nowhere. All we want is to walk around without injuring ourselves the Legos left on the floor.

I used to think that I was struggling with my kid's meltdowns because it seemed to always be a full moon. Then I learned about power struggles.

Kids have a basic need for power. When they feel like they don't have power, that is when the struggle begins.

But giving them power doesn't have to mean giving up your power as a parent.

There are ways where both you and your child can feel in control.

Check out this episode with my guest Lindsay to learn why power struggles happen and 3 tips to overcome them.
