  • How to Talk So Kids Will Listen Episode 2
    Jan 14 2025

    This week we're reading chapter two from How to Talk So Kids Will Listen and Listen So Kids Will Talk by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish: Engaging Cooperation. We discuss how challenging it can be at times to respond to children empathetically, and then impact it can have when we don't. We cover the authors' five techniques for engaging cooperation: describing the problem, giving information, saying it with a word, talking about your feelings, and writing a note. If you want to join our discussion and weigh in on chapter two, please click here to join our online book club community!

  • How to Talk So Kids Will Listen Episode 1
    Jan 7 2025

    We've started a new book: How to Talk So Kids Will Listen and Listen So Kids Will Talk by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish. We'll be reading this book for the next two months and discussing it in our online book club community each week! In this episode, we cover chapter one: Helping Children Deal with Their Feelings. We discuss the connection between how a child feels and the way he behaves, how denial of feelings impacts children (and adults), the importance of responding empathetically when kids experience strong emotions, and their four-step approach for helping children deal with their feelings.

Phuong acknowledges how hard we work and how we go above and beyond for our students/clients. We discuss this chapter and our final thoughts on the book. We're taking November off and will be back to discuss How to Talk So Kids Will Listen and Listen So Kids Will Talk in December/January.
