Episode 3061: Adina Soclof explains that strong-willed children aren't problems to be fixed but independent, persistent kids who need guidance, structure, and emotional coaching. Learn practical ways to reduce power struggles, stop hitting, encourage cooperation, and create a calmer, more peaceful home while nurturing your child's strengths. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://parentingsimply.com/how-to-manage-your-strong-willed-child/ Quotes to ponder: "Strong willed children already have a strong dose of the independence they need to make it on their own and it should be recognized as a strength." "When we have strong-willed children it is hard to remember that they so badly want to behave appropriately but they don’t have the necessary basic people skills or emotional intelligence to do so." "All children desperately want their parents approval and some children just don’t know how to achieve that." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
