Top 3 Takes: Don't pick sides, family meetings, connect before correct. Lorena Seidel

Top 3 takeaways from my convesation with Lorena Siedel.  1. Don't pick sides when your children get in an argument. This starts to make one feel like the "bad" kid and the other "good", also much more psychological reasons for it.  2. Weekly Family Meetings - Be consistent with the same time each week. Start with something great that happened that day, something they love about someone else there. Then what bugged them and what they wished was different.  3. Connecting before correcting - When disciplining start with compassion, empathy and then show them the correct behavior.
