Speak So They’ll Listen: Positive Parenting Through Intentional Communication [73]
Manage episode 448784206 series 3459203
In this episode, we’re diving into the heart of positive parenting with our second key pillar: intentional communication. If you’re just joining us, I recommend checking out Episode 70 first, where we explore the foundational “paradigm shift” that sets the stage for all positive parenting tools. There, we discuss the different parenting styles—autocratic, permissive, and democratic—and how shifting our mindset helps us connect better with our kids.
Building on that foundation, this episode introduces practical tweaks to transform everyday interactions. From using a “pause button” to manage our reactions to keeping a positive “emotional bank account” with our children, you’ll gain actionable tips for using tone, choice, and active listening to foster cooperation and trust. We’ll also walk through a simple 3-step approach for making requests that helps kids feel respected and understood.
