26. How I Got My Kids to Help With Chores
Manage episode 378796615 series 3473714
Have you found yourself asking nicely for the kids to help pick-up, or unload the dishwasher...only to get a response like, "Whyyyyyy?" or "Do I haaaaave to?"
Few things are more frustrating than having to battle your child to help around the house.
Maybe you're a parent (like me) who does a lot to ensure they are having an awesome life. So when they buck at a small request, it makes it REAL hard to keep your cool. Friend, I have been there! (Like this weekend).:)
This week's episode is here to help! I’m unveiling the reasons your kids don't want to help with chores, and giving you 2 KEY easy steps for change.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:
- What to say before the chore is expected.
- How to motivate cooperation, in a direct way that is kind and firm.
- The magic solution that shifted my own family from groans to "yes mom."
Why is this important? Psychologists suggest that encouraging our little ones to lend a hand around the house can have a big impact on their future! 🏡👧🧒
By fostering a sense of responsibility early on, we're nurturing the qualities that can transform them into naturally helpful teenagers. 🤝💪
