My Kids Won't Do Their Chores Without My Nagging

Have you ever wondered, “My child can’t manage to even take the garbage out. How will she ever survive in adulthood?” Or, maybe it sounds more like, “I do so much for these kids. Why can’t they do a few simple things to help out?!”

Today’s episode is loaded with tools and will give you a lot to think about as Jim Jackson and Stacy Bellward talk with Connected Families parent coach Chad Hayenga and pull apart the question, “What should I do when my kids won’t do their chores without my nagging?”

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

Effective use of “when/then” statements
The link between clear expectations and kind and firm accountability
Insight into what compels parents to nag their kids
How to help those distractible kids
How to link privileges to responsibilities in an encouraging way
