Why does losing a game trigger a massive meltdown? The same reason your kids boss siblings, obsess over fairness and have to prove their point, wear the same clothes and eat the same foods, struggle with changes in plans…and even collect acorns in their pockets. The good news is these behaviors all have the same root cause…and similar solutions! Kirk provides a practical cheat sheet to stop the constant drama…and help your child be more flexible.

Your primary responsibility is to the family you created, not the family you came from. But standing your ground can feel scary with an intimidating, critical, or manipulative parent. If you’ve spent your whole life staying quiet, this episode is for you. You will have exact, word-for-word scripts to help you confidently set healthy boundaries and earn the respect you deserve. Plus, we’ll show grandparents specific ways to connect with your strong-willed child instead of criticizing them.
