Inbal Kashtan, Certified NVC Trainer:
In this video download, expert parent trainer and author of Parenting From Your Heart, Inbal Kashtan responds to the age-old question: "Why do children do things to annoy parents?" Using jackal and giraffe puppets to illustrate common parent/child dialogues, Inbal answers other common questions like:
- What do I do when my child is "obstinate?"
- Why does my child thrive on not participating?
- Why does my child seem to want negative attention?
These engaging role-play dialogues will teach you effective communication skills to better connect to the needs behind your child's behavior. Equally important, Inbal also imparts practical wisdom on how to help children understand their parent's needs.
