Stop Your Children from Back Talking with One Simple Skill Cliff Notes

If you’ve not yet taken the opportunity to watch Nicholeen’s webinar “Stop Your Children from Back Talking with One Simple Skill”, here are a few highlights to let you know what you’ve been missing!

Nicholeen begins by identifying the type of child most likely to talk back, and why. The strong willed child, she explains, is an intelligent child. The strong willed child thinks things through in depth and has a plan for everything and a reason for that plan. Back talking usually begins because he or she feels that they’ve been given an instruction that will stop them from doing what they have planned and thought out. The child feels unheard, and as a result, uncared for.

Disagreeing Appropriately is the star skill that gives children the opportunity and ability to listen to a parent’s request, knowing that the parent will also hear and honor the needs of the child. Although How to Disagree Appropriately is one of the four skills that Nicholeen teaches throughout her books and training materials, this webinar addresses in detail thewhyof disagreeing appropriately, as well how it actually shifts the mind and allows the child to self-govern. She shows how utilizing this skill moves your child from a state of emotional panic at not getting his way to a place of calm and logical acceptance.

She reminds us that both parents and children must seek to understand before they seek to be understood. When children practice disagreeing appropriately, they first seek to understand why the parent is asking something of them, before they share what their desires are. By allowing children to disagree appropriately,the parent shows a willingness and a desire to understand what it is the child wants and why. It takes away the struggle of parent vs child, and places family members on the same team again. This one skill increases respect and understanding between parent and child and invites unity where there was discord.

Not only will you come away with a deeper understanding of the skill of Disagreeing Appropriately, there other gems and opportunities that are being offered only in conjunction with this webinar that are not to be missed. So don’t miss this opportunity to give your family the gift of loving interaction through disagreeing appropriately and Teaching Self-Government!
