Have you ever wondered how your child can spend hours building a virtual world… yet when you ask them to do any daily task, they act like it's torture? In this episode, I explain the REAL reason your child resists everyday tasks and why it has nothing to do with laziness, disrespect, or lack of motivation.

Once you understand how the brain responds to stimulation and Yuck, you’ll be able to shift from fighting your child’s resistance… to understanding it and leading them through it.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why your child’s brain sees boring tasks as “dangerous” and actively avoids them
  • The difference between motivation strategies and activation strategies and why one works while the other backfires
  • What you can start doing immediately to help your child cooperate more easily (and build confidence at the same time)
