I give you actual scripts and action steps to take in this very personal, practical episode.

Your kids are going to do things that are annoying, irritating, and sometimes just wrong. You will be justified in getting angry and correcting them. But I want you to turn what usually separates you from your child…into a bonding opportunity to draw you closer. I want you to deal with your own triggers and control yourself…because that will change their behavior more quickly.
