I talk about the secret to getting your kids to listen to you the FIRST time!! The final question I answer is how to get more respect from your kids.

From the Podcast:
Question #1 Understanding meltdown
When kids are too young to express themselves and name their emotions follow these steps:
1. Accept your child has big emotions
Name what your child must be feeling
Give them empathy – feeling things you can’t name is really hard and can feel scary for a child
Accept again
You need to know what your emotions are as well. Follow this link to get your list of feelings

Question #2 steps to getting your kids to listen
Notice where you are in relationship to your child when you ask them to do something
Go to them and connect with them – touch them on the arm or back to take them into the here
and now.
Make your request once you have their attention
Take them
Give them any help they need
