Most of us want to have a healthy sense of parental authority with our kids. We want to lead our home with purpose and make quality decisions that are best for the kids' future — and for ours.
But often in the complexities of divorce, loss and single-parenting, the "balance of power" can unintentionally shift toward the kids. When that happens, they gain more and more control over the daily decisions of the household. It usually seems innocent enough at the time…
…but when this happens it can rob you of your parenting confidence and hijack the decisions you know are best. And ultimately, this dynamic can set the stage for resistance when you make a decision that your kids don't agree with — such as wanting to remarry and blend families.
Power struggles with kids create BIG challenges. We know this from our own personal experience. When it happens, you're left feeling powerless, frustrated and defeated as you try to convince the kids to get on board, but it's just met with conflict and resistance — and you remain stuck in a power struggle.
In this episode, we'll explore how power struggles develop and what you can do to shift the power in your home while still supporting your kids. All without losing your sanity!
