Summary

Consequences: From Toddler Tantrums to Teen Transgressions

What consequence should you give your child for misbehavior? That is the most common question we get. If you have a strong-willed child, you know that consequences rarely work with these kids. But there ARE times they do. Kirk gives you scripts and action steps for kids of all ages.

So I bet I have a way for even reluctant teens and tweens to spend time with you.

0:05.4

Sit and better on the sofa, wrapped in the heavenly softness of the new cozy earth bubble cuddle

blanket. It is so ridiculously soft. Your toddlers, your teens, pets, even your spouse is going to

0:16.8

want to cuddle with you. And you will have the best talks all wrapped up together. We absolutely

0:23.7

love our bubble cuddle blanket because it's the perfect combination of style and comfort. Oh,

0:29.5

and your sensory kids, forget about it. They're going to try to steal the cozy earth bubble

0:33.7

cuddle blanket from your room. I'd have them do extra chores to buy their own, but then you

0:38.6

might not be able to get them out of bed. Look, your bed shouldn't just be a place to sleep. It should be

your happy place. Use the cozy earth bamboo sheets. We'd love those. And this new blanket,

1:32.5

And when predictably your toddler or young child doesn't listen, you try to put them in time out and then have to repeat a tougher consequence when they predictably don't stay in time out

1:46.5

only to get more aggravated or you use the always popular if-then warning or bribe.

1:53.8

If you don't stop that, put that down, leave your brother alone, then you will lose your

1:57.6
