Ep. 7: Whining Decoded: How to Stop It Without Losing Your Mind

If the sound of your child's whining sends you straight to the edge — there's a neuropsychological reason for that, and it's not a personal failing.

Whining works. Not because your child is manipulating you, but because at some point it got results — and their brain learned to keep using it. In this episode you'll learn why whining is so triggering for parents, how children accidentally learn that whining is their most effective communication strategy, and exactly how to respond in the moment without accidentally making it worse.
