Welcome back to the No Problem Parenting podcast, where we turn behavior problems into no problems! I'm your host, Jaci Finneman. Today, we're delving into responses #31-40 of the 60 ways to respond to your kids without losing your cool.
Parenting is no cakewalk, and we all face challenging moments. The key is maintaining a positive relationship while addressing these situations. Remember, you're not alone in this journey. It's natural to feel upset at times, but how you respond makes all the difference.
Dealing with Unwanted Behaviors: Kids can be defiant, meltdown, yell, or cry for various reasons. But what if we approached these situations with preparation rather than dread? Our responses can either escalate or de-escalate the situation, influencing the frequency of repeated behaviors.
No-Problem Parents™ Approach: No-Problem Parents™ give behavior problems only as much attention as they deserve. It's about responding as a leader who understands the child's emotions without getting entangled in the battle. The goal is to be empathetic, firm, and confident without letting every behavior affect the parent-child relationship.
Empathy and Understanding: These 60 responses are designed to be shared in a matter-of-fact, empathetic way. The aim is to respond as a parent who understands the child's struggles, venting, or sadness. There's no need for sarcasm, criticism, or convincing tones.
Handling Your Own Emotions: Parenting can be emotionally challenging, and it's okay to feel upset sometimes. The key is modeling appropriate behavior even when upset. The responses provide tools for expressing your emotions without hurting others or losing control.
In today's episode, we're covering responses #31-40. To access the full list of 60 responses, visit noproblemparents.com, enter your name and email, and we'll send the PDF to your inbox.
This episode is brought to you by Dr. J.J. Kelly and The Get Real Program your guide to navigating the challenges of parenting teens and young adults.
Parenting is a journey with its ups and downs. These responses are your tools to handle challenging moments while maintaining a positive relationship with your child. Remember, you've got this!

Part 3/6 - Today Jaci shares #21-30 of the 60 Ways to Respond to your kids without losing your cool.
Dealing with children's unwanted behavior can be challenging, and it's important to maintain a calm and empathetic approach. These responses can be used for children of all ages, even infants. We'll explore how to respond when your infant or toddler is upset, refusing diaper changes, or resisting being buckled into the car seat to Kids and teens who are talking back or disrespecting you.
When kids are defiant, melting down, yelling at you, or crying because they are upset, want to do something they cannot do, or aren’t doing something you’ve asked them to do, it can be inconvenient, embarrassing, and exhausting.
Does it really have to be? What if instead of dreading the defiance we are prepared to respond to it? Just because our kids get upset or reactive doesn’t mean we need to join them. We can observe the behavior as simply that! A behavior. And behaviors pass unless we feed them by giving them too much attention which often causes the child to repeat the behavior.
How we respond to our child’s behaviors can make or break our relationship with them and determine how often the child will repeat the same unwanted behavior.
No-Problem Parents™ give behavior problems only as much attention as they deserve and then life goes on. There is no need to take every behavior personally and in fact, when parents do take every behavior personally, we are unintentionally teaching kids that their behavior controls the health of our relationship with them. In other words, if they are behaving well, we feel better about ourselves, and our worth as a parent feels good. When our children are not behaving well, we feel responsible and often embarrassed which can cause anger and resentment or feelings of hopelessness and defeat.
These 60 responses are intended to be shared in a matter-of-fact yet empathetic way without sarcasm, criticism, anger, or convincing tones.
Let's learn how to be empathetic leaders in our children's lives without losing control.
