28. Motivating Your Kids To Work

Trying to get your child to do their jobs can be hard work, especially when your child things you are the one being unreasonable! Learn some different motivations that can help inspire your child and get them moving in the right direction!

In this episode, Lindy talks about:

Different efforts children need to feel motivated
How efforts to motivate can sometimes come across as shaming and unkindness
Why some children need specific rules and guidelines to feel loved, while others need freedom and space
How to recognize which method will work best for your child

Key Takeaways:

The ways you motivate your child can come across differently, depending on the way they think
BE thinking children will respond better when they aren’t being micromanaged
DO thinking children will respond better to more rules and specific guidelines
Two parents with opposite parenting styles can be a good thing, as long as your child is first receiving the motivation that helps them know they are loved
When your child feels overwhelmed with parent’s expectations, it can be helpful to parents to try thinking in the opposite way, to find new ways to inspire and motivate.
