Episode 218
Kids know that they have to do things they don’t want to do: brush their teeth, put their stuff away, do their homework — and yet, they still complain day after day. Even when we ask them to stop complaining or whining, it doesn’t stop for long.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why whining and complaining is really a symptom of something deeper for kids
- How to avoid being sucked into their Yuck (and save our energy!)
- What to teach your kids to reduce their complaining in the future
