PDA Kids Demanding & Saying Mean Things? 7 Minutes, 1 Big Idea. #19

Your child yells and demands that you bring them food or do something for them, and when you do, they berate you for not doing it right. The conventional wisdom is that your only options are to accommodate your child or you’ll trigger their nervous system. Those are NOT the only options—those are the extremes! I want to give you a middle ground so that you are not left feeling like a punching bag, walking on eggshells around your own child. In this 7-minute episode, I give you scripts and action steps to handle these tough situations with respect and dignity.

Ask Your Child If You Have Pathological Demand Acceptance? #18

Many parents going through our PDA Parent Program said this question has helped them see their child with PDA in a completely different way and changed their relationship. A Dad said he’s been so busy trying to please others that he was embarrassed about his son’s behavior—this helped reframe how he saw his child’s demand avoidance. This is a short, but powerful episode I hope you’ll share with others. If you want personal mentoring with me, go to https://CelebrateCalm.com/PDA.

How can you get kids with PDA to do hard things like go to the dentist or get on an airplane? The common sentiment, “Not Won’t. Can’t” can be debilitating for our kids when it becomes the reflexive response. In this episode, I give you alternate scripts and options to build your child’s confidence in the toughest situations.
