from Mentally Stronger with Therapist Amy Morin · host Amy Morin
Are you tired of battling with your kids over homework, chores, or screen time? Or maybe you’ve tried every reward chart and consequence system out there, but nothing seems to work? If you’re ready for a new approach to parenting, this episode is for you. My guest is Dr. Ross Greene, a clinical psychologist and the author of The Explosive Child and Raising Human Beings. His new book is called The Kids Who Aren't Okay. He’s here to share why traditional discipline methods often fail — and how collaborative problem-solving can transform your relationship with your child. Some of the things we discuss are: How to better understand challenging behavior The problem with focusing on behavior instead of the underlying issue Why non-compliance can actually be a good thing How to identify the “unsolved problems” that are causing your child’s struggles The two criteria for creating solutions that actually work Why teaching kids problem-solving skills is the best way to prepare them for the real world Subscribe to Mentally Stronger Premium for exclusive content like weekly bonus episodes, mental strength challenges, and office hours with me.
