How to get out of a Power Struggle,

Dear Parents,

#2 Way to Get out of a Power Struggle. – Talk Less – Use One word if Possible.

 Let’s look at an example to demonstrate.  Bill is supposed to take out the trash by 9:00 each night.  It’s 9:15 and he’s watching TV and the trash is sitting there.

Mom walks into the room.   Bill say’s “What Mom?"  Mom simply says “Trash”.  Bill says “In a minute Mom”.  Mom says,  "Bill, Trash," and then walk away.   

By walking away, Mom has broken the connection.  No connection, no excuses.  

Tomorrow I will give you another tip!
To Your Family,
