Tired of barking orders at your kids only to face resistance, incomplete tasks, and frustration all around? This episode reveals the fundamental flaw in how we typically assign responsibilities to children—and we uncover a transformational three-step approach to teaching children responsibility that helps parents guide kids toward taking ownership of household tasks.
• Explore the step-by-step process of showing, explaining and collaborating
• Understand why knowing the purpose behind tasks increases motivation and compliance
• Demonstrate how visual references help children understand expectations
• Create simple family mission statements that give meaning to household responsibilities
• Gradually transition from parent-led to child-led responsibility using the Parent First Approach (I do it, WE do it, YOU do it)
