The TEACH tool is a step-by-step process of conflict resolution that keeps you connected to you kids. Forget yelling, threatening, begging or bargaining and start connecting with your kids!

When you get into the habit of following this simple 5-step method you'll find that your child's level of cooperation will rise as you begin to regulate your own emotions, validate feelings, listen to needs and then problem-solve together.

It's important for children to understand that while their misbehavior may not always be acceptable, their feelings always are. There is a fine distinction between all feelings and needs are acceptable and all behaviors are not.

Traditional parenting methods often focus on correcting behaviors and thus inadvertently ignore or dismiss a child's feelings.

Labeling emotions is also crucial for a child working through a tough time. It helps him not only process his feelings in the moment but now he also has a word to describe it for next time.

You can get the tool from its creators at Teach Through Love.

Nice one!
