It’s incredibly exhausting to feel like a broken record, constantly reminding your kids to get ready, start homework, or get off of their device.

In this episode, you’ll learn: 

  • Why micronagging becomes the default, even when we don’t want to do it
  • The real reason kids don’t follow through the first time, and why it isn’t defiance
  • Three practical steps to replace reminders with systems that actually work
