If you are a parent of a TEEN or TWEEN – then you will be no stranger to arguments in the home – I’m afraid to say that it’s a rite of passage!
But my guest on this episode, Parent Coach Claire Cetti, has developed a 5 step process that helps parents to move from Conflict & Anger to Calm & Connection within the family.
We talk about her CARES System.
C : CATCH IT! : Stop what you are doing and acknowledge what’s happening right now.
A : ASSESS : what’s going on – for you and your child. Look at the bigger picture.
R : REMEMBER the Relationship : It’s not always about winning the argument.
E : ENGAGE : Open up the conversation with your child.
S : SEEK a Resolution : This is about co-operation and collaboration … helping you both come out with a solution that works for everyone.
This is GOLD!
