Summary

Kids Ignore, Resist, or Fight You? Get Them Moving More Quickly. #457

Why can't your kids just come when you ask them? Does it always have to be a fight? It's like they can't hear you when playing video games. They aren't grateful for time with friends--they lash out when you pick them up. And when you call them for dinner, all you hear is, "Just a couple more minutes" and they ignore you. It's frustrating! Kirk shows you a powerful strategy that melts resistance, gets kids moving, and creates bonding moments...instead of power struggles. Take advantage of the Black Friday Sale in March at https://celebratecalm.com/black-friday/
