5 Strategies to Avoid Power Struggles with Children
Authentic Parenting - A podcast by Anna Seewald

Description
This is our monthly special episode where I co-host the show with another colleague. For now, I have a Mystery Seat for each month and I invite passionate coaches or parent educators to host the show with me. This should be fun.
For the monthly special episodes the show has a different format.
We have 4 segments.
Examples from Our Home
What’s Up with You? Answering listener parenting questions
Favorite Finds
----------------
In the first segment I tell a story that happens very commonly in many households. My daughter one morning before going to school stated that she didn’t have shoes. How did I answer? Did I avoid power struggles successfully, was I able to listen and validate? Listen to find out. The same day I received a call from a client who said that his son woke up and said, “I do not want to go to school…”
Sound familiar?
Laura has two daughters: a 2,5 year old one and a 5 year old one. She shares a sibling rivalry story.
For this month Laura Froyen, PhD takes the mystery seat.
About My Co-host
Questions we received this month:
- A mom is frustrated with food related issue. She has strong triggers around wasting food. How to handle a situation where a child (3.5) asks for a specific food, is given the food, and then doesn’t eat it?
- A single mom who works from home has a hard time managing her time and her toddler.
