This Week's Episode:
We are reminding ourselves how to interact with our kids when they are being surly--no matter what age.
- Be emotionally engaged, but appropriately distanced.
- Don't expect our kids to be adults.
- Use humor (wisely).
- Listen with true curiosity.
- Communicate clearly.
- Catch your kids doing "good" things, and provide descriptive, specific praise.
The Stat of the Week is inspired by our sadness about Bill & Melinda Gates' divorce announcement and is all about divorce statistics.
