“The Strongest Influence In The Life Of Your Child Wins. Is That You?”

Ever Wonder Why…
…some kids can’t stand to be around their parents and others actually like to?
Ever Wonder Why…
…some kids do things the first time they’re told while others need 10 reminders?
Ever Wonder Why…
…you feel like you’ve tried everything and nothing makes behavior better?
The Answer Is… INFLUENCE
The Answer Is… INFLUENCE
Imagine…
…having the same clout or influence on your child as their favorite actor, singer, or friends. Your children are gladly influenced by these people…they WANT to listen to them, be like them, and act like them. Imagine not having to be a monster to get things done. Imagine actually hanging out with your children and having fun!
The One Thing
When your children graduate from high school or even before then, you’ll be left with ONE THING….your INFLUENCE. That’s it. So if your parenting goal is to raise a responsible, moral, ethical, kind, and polite child you might be in danger of missing the point.
THE ENEMY
You see…most parents goal for their children in reality is just simply “Behavior Modification” which is getting your children to simply carry out a behavior or act a certain way as the primary goal. The problem is most parents implode their relationship (and influence) with their children during this process.
What ends up happening is you’re so tired and fed up trying to make this happen you’ll do anything to get things done or to make the bad behavior stop including screaming and threatening. Over time this negative and dismantling approach ruins your relationship with your child.
Misguided Effort
This is probably why you think you’ve tried everything and nothing works. While most others teach you a bunch of “How-To’s” and give you a “Bag Of tools” to “Fix” this, they don’t focus on building your influence with your child.
It’s kind of like planting a garden. Nothing you do matters unless that soil is tilled and ready to receive the seed!
The Influence Focus
If you focus specifically on growing your influence with your child it will allow you to RAPIDLY build a strong relationship. Then once that relationship is strong it makes getting them to do what you need to do so much easier because they’ll actually want to do it just like you’d want to help a friend do something!
