How Do I Encourage Cooperation Instead of Power Struggles?

How Do I Encourage Cooperation Instead of Power Struggles?

Tired of daily battles over homework, bedtime, and chores? You're not alone.

In this episode, Curtis and RJ tackle one of the most common parenting challenges: power struggles. From homework meltdowns to forgotten permission slips, they share seven science-backed strategies that actually reduce conflict and build cooperation.

Curtis brings fresh stories from the tween parenting trenches (spoiler: math homework is still the worst), while RJ shares hard-won wisdom from raising two kids to adulthood—including hilarious confessions about all the battles that, in hindsight, weren't worth fighting.

What You'll Learn:• Why power struggles happen (hint: it's not about the shoes)• The "magic" of giving age-appropriate choices• How to connect before you correct—and why it matters• The power of the pause (yes, even when they take the car without permission)• Shifting from "me vs. you" to "us vs. the problem"• When to hold firm, when to negotiate, and when to let go• How to catch kids cooperating (and why this changes everything)

Perfect for parents of tweens, teens, and anyone who's ever thought, "There has to be a better way than yelling.

Real stories. Real laughs. Real strategies you can use tonight.
