Many parents find themselves in a pattern; they calmly ask their kids to do something and nothing happens. Then they repeat the ask, repeat it again, with one more reminder and then…the parent blows up. When kids don't listen, parents often feel the need to take back control and you can almost guarantee that you'll enter into a power struggle where no one comes out as the winner. In this repeat episode, you'll learn that misbehaviour is always a symptom of a deeper issue, what causes it, and the strategies to correct it. Amy McCready — who describes herself as a “recovering yeller” — is the Founder of Positive Parenting Solutions and the author of two best-selling parenting books: If I Have to Tell You One More Time and The “Me, Me, Me” Epidemic.
