Strategies For Avoiding Power Struggles

5. Check Your Own Attitude:

Admit your failures to your children and ask them for forgiveness if you’ve been angry, or out of control of your own schedule or emotions. Peace is contagious: you set the tone for the family, so remember that “the calmer you are, the calmer your child will be… Instead of yelling and pushing your child to move. Try staying calm and easing them into the transition. I know that this can be easier said than done, especially when you’re in a hurry.”
