In Part 3, I helped you understand how Neurodevelopmental Factors play a part in problem behaviors. In Part 4, we explored Social and Emotional Learning Gaps and how they contribute to problem behaviors.

This episode’s topic is both important and challenging: Why do some kids struggle with problem behavior?  It's a question that many parents, educators, and caregivers grapple with, and understanding the underlying factors can make a significant difference in how we approach and support these children. We start by acknowledging that every child is unique, and there's no universal answer to why some kids exhibit problem behavior. It's a nuanced topic that involves a combination of factors. One significant aspect to consider is that children often communicate through behavior. In this episode, we explore some of the common contributing factors that contribute to why your child may be experiencing problematic behavior. So listen until the end to find out more about how you can support your child in managing their behavior.

Life can be full of surprises - some good and some not so good. But when parents are dealing with something hard, often our kids are, too. And though our kids are usually our number one priority, ironically they often take a backseat when we're trying to survive whatever it is we're trying to survive. Our special guest, Sara Olsher, has a goal and that is to help parents help their kids during the worst thing that's ever happened to them — that could be a divorce or a health crisis.  She leaves us with actionable takeaways that will help, whether you’re in crisis or just surviving life with kids. She shares what works in reducing anxiety and also shares with us why open communication is so essential. Our children need coping skills just like we do, and there are certain types that kids need long-term to be resilient when their lives get tough. So get ready for some real talk today.  About This Episode's Special Guest: http://www.mightyandbright.com IG @mightyandbrightco *EMAIL LIST* Click here to join my email list for more free content to help you on your parenting journey! or go to strongermindsstrongeryouth.com/jointhelist *REACH OUT & SHARE* Email me your stories to share with others parents just like you @ [email protected]  *CONNECT WITH ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA!!!* & *TAG ME IN YOUR STORIES!!!* #jessikashields or @strongermindsstrongeryouth Get Social to Stay Connected!!!

WARNING: Controversial Topic Let me ask you a question. What comes to mind when you hear the phrase “financial literacy”? Is this something that only parents should teach their children or do you think the schools should add this as a part of the education system? I’ve heard many old school parents say that they took a class or two in this area where they learned how to balance a checkbook and learned about basic financial principles that may not have been taught at home. I’ve also seen on rare occasions, classroom teachers who turn their entire class into a token economy where students pay rent for desk and earn class money for doing their work. The token economy may work in an elementary school or middle school setting but what about in a high school setting? Should it be a separate class period dedicated to teaching financial principles? Well, believe it or not, some states are requiring this to be included in the standard curriculum while others are not. But why? To help us take a deeper dive, our special guest is going to shed some light on this situation and give you tools you need to address the issues with your school board.  About This Episode's Special Guest: Website: https://www.financialeducatorscouncil.org/all-states-fail-financial-literacy-mandates/ *EMAIL LIST* Click here to join my email list for more free content to help you on your parenting journey! or go to strongermindsstrongeryouth.com/jointhelist *REACH OUT & SHARE* Email me your stories to share with others parents just like you @ [email protected]  *CONNECT WITH ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA!!!* & *TAG ME IN YOUR STORIES!!!* #jessikashields or @strongermindsstrongeryouth Get Social to Stay Connected!!!

So, if you are concerned about your child’s future and want them to have a successful business or career, listen closely because many times an individual's confidence is tied to how they perform in school.

In this episode, we talk about a truly pervasive issue in the parenting world. Is it me or does it seem like kids just don’t do well taking direction these days. You give a directive and they say “no, I don’t want to” or maybe they just outright ignore you as if they didn’t hear a thing. As a parent, what do you do? Maybe you yell. Maybe you offer a sweet deal or bribe. Maybe you give them an ultimatum which kicks their defiant behaviors into high gear. Of course, the cycle continues. Well, there has to be a better way to handle these difficult situations at every age and stage of childhood development. That’s why we have a very special guest today to help us with this very issue. She has helped over 10,000 parents, so you’re not alone.  About This Episode's Special Guest: FREE COURSE: https://cmp.works/successful Book on Amazon: https://cmp.works/thebooklink Resources Mentioned: Book: Mindset by Carol Dweck https://www.amazon.com/Mindset-Carol-S-Dweck-audiobook/dp/B07N48NM33/ref=sr_1_1?crid=27YHT1JSD82PB&keywords=mindset+carol&qid=1693068550&s=books&sprefix=mindset+carol%2Cstripbooks%2C136&sr=1-1 Drive by Daniel Pink https://www.amazon.com/Drive-Surprising-Truth-About-Motivates/dp/1594484805/ref=sr_1_1?crid=32FIP8CF5YNK3&keywords=drive+by+daniel+pink&qid=1693068830&s=books&sprefix=drive%2Cstripbooks%2C255&sr=1-1 *EMAIL LIST* Click here to join my email list for more free content to help you on your parenting journey! or go to strongermindsstrongeryouth.com/jointhelist *REACH OUT & SHARE* Email me your stories to share with others parents just like you @ [email protected]  *CONNECT WITH ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA!!!* & *TAG ME IN YOUR STORIES!!!* #jessikashields or @strongermindsstrongeryouth Get Social to Stay Connected!!!
