Connection Vs. Coercion

Do you connect with people by sharing your stories? Unfortunately, this type of connection often backfires with kids. They rarely feel closer to you by listening to you talk about yourself, even if what you're saying is super relatable. And when it comes to parenting, most of the time, our stories are meant more to teach, convince, and persuade (in short, to coerce) than they are just to connect. In this week's episode of Confessions Of A Parent Coach, I will show you: ♦ Why this might not be the best way to create closeness with your child, ♦ When it IS effective and ♦ How to execute so that coercion is the furthest thing from your conversations with your child. There are so many amazing ways to connect with your kiddo, and so many times when asking ourselves, "Am I coming at this from a place of connection or coercion?" can work wonders to keep us on track with our parenting. When you work with me, I teach you ALL the techniques that create healthy parent-child relationships and improve behavior. Set up a free call with me today!
