Episode 207
Many of our kids seem like they wish they were in charge. They tell us (and others) what to do, they try to get us to bend our rules, and they say mean things that seem meant to hurt us. While their behavior certainly appears controlling, in reality, children don’t want to control us or others
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- What is really underneath controlling behavior
- Why seeing their behavior as controlling makes situations worse
- What you can do instead to handle this type of behavior
