Episode 221: When You Do Something Fun For Your Child and They Still Don’t Do What You Ask

Your Parenting Long Game - A podcast by Rachel Bailey - Thursdays

It can be so frustrating when we do something fun for our children -- take them somewhere, play a game with them -- and then when we ask them to do what they have to do -- brush their teeth, go to bed -- they don’t listen! Shouldn’t doing things for our kids make it more likely that they’ll do what we ask? In this episode, you’ll learn why “deposits” don’t always improve behavior (and may actually make it worse) and what your children really need in those situations in order to behave better.
