MAKE REQUESTS THAT GET HEARD: In this 40-minute session, you'll learn how to stop arguing, pleading, begging, demanding, and insisting that your kids listen and instead increase cooperation by enhancing how you listen and clarifying what you say, so you can respond in ways that bring your closer to what you really want from your kids.


Why isn't anyone listening to me?
 Where did I go wrong?


 Ever feel like this? Do you know what prevents you from setting limits your kids will respect?


You can set an expectation of cooperation - but that's only 50% of the work. The other 50% involves you exhibiting a sense of calm confidence as you hold the boundaries in place - without getting offended by behavior.


If your requests are charged with emotional reactivity, anger or impatience - your kids will feel it. They'll close down and shut you out. This class will show you how to create meaningful change by letting go of obedience, getting clear about your real needs, and using actionable language that your kids will understand.

 

Turn your demands into invitations your kids will respond to. 

  • How punishment encourages bad behavior and the communication process that will create positive behavioral change.

  • To confidently stand by your limits while being mindful instead of trying to convince your children, legitimize your limits or rationalize your reasons.

  • What kinds of opportunities children need to experience belonging and significance, so they want to listen to what you have to say.

  • How to identify your real needs and reframe your demands into requests that kids don't run from.

In this 40-minute audio/video presentation and accompanying personal discovery exercises, you'll learn to stay emotionally available using actionable language which conveys your limits without damaging your relationship. The activity worksheets in this session will guide you to getting really clear on what you want to happen so you aren't unconsciously asking your children to fulfill your needs through their behavior.

 

Empathy helps us separate what we need from the behaviors we want. 


 Discover what motivates children more effectively and consistently than the pain of punishment.
