Getting Your Kids to Listen the First Time You Ask
Are you tired of repeating yourself over and over and feeling ignored? Does the sheer task of getting your kids out the door on time exhaust you because all you do is give constant reminders? Do you often wonder why your kids have no problem ignoring you, and it isn’t until you yell that they tune in?
Imagine getting your kids to listen the first time you ask, without the need for yelling or threats. How would that feel? No more battles, whining tantrums, or endless negotiations.
And what if I told you you can gain cooperation and foster deep connections with your kids?
As a parent and a child behavior expert, I understand the challenges you face. That's why I'm excited to share with you a solution that has helped countless parents gain cooperation AND connection: My 60-Minute Course: How to Get Your Kids to Listen the First Time You Ask!
Does this sound familiar?
Parent: Hey, it’s time to go. Can you put your shoes and coat on?
Child: Completely ignores you and continues playing.
Parent: OK, in 2 minutes, you need to stop so we can get ready to leave.
Child: I don’t want to leave!
Parent: I know, but we have to.
Child: Ignores you
Parent: OK, time is up. We have to go
Child: NO!! Epic tantrum ensues
As a parent, one of two things usually happens: You start negotiating and offering other choices, or you become irritated and begin to yell and make threats, wondering why your child never listens (e.g., “Ugh, what is wrong with you? Why can’t you just listen!!”)
I totally get it…
As a parent myself, and having worked with thousands of kids for the last twenty years, I understand the fatigue that comes with trying to be a “good” parent. We want our kids to be happy and cooperative. If we try to discipline them, it seems like we’re being harsh or using parenting tactics that our parents used, like leveraging fear and shame. We don’t want to resort to punishments and counting to 3, but we don’t know what else to do.
In this course, I will share what parents need to stop doing and the foolproof plan they need to follow instead. I'll provide practical tools and strategies you can start using immediately. And yes, you will learn the art of how to connect and gain cooperation at the same time!
I will also include what I call special considerations.
These are for the moments when you’re in line at Target, and your child decides to lose it because you grabbed the wrong playdough color…sigh.
As parents, we know every situation presents us with unique challenges. We need to know how to show up in each moment so we don’t match our child’s escalating energy, and we set the boundaries they need while keeping ourselves calm.
Endlessly repeat themselves to no avail: It sounds like, "Please put your toys away," "Hey, you need to clean up your toys," "I don’t want to say it again, but you need to listen," "THAT’S IT, YOU LOST SCREEN TIME FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK!!
Constantly negotiates with their child: Ok, you can play for 5 more minutes, but when I say it’s time to stop you need to listen and no arguing. Five minutes pass, and they still cry and argue.
Feels defeated, as if it’s only your child who never listens: I see my friends’ kids, they don’t throw epic tantrums like mine, it must be me.
Struggles to get through their day: After endless power struggles getting your child to cooperate and get to school on time, you’re already in tears after drop off.
Resorts to yelling because it’s the only way they’ll listen: You yell and then feel terribly guilty afterward, like you’re the worst parent for losing your cool.
Gives empty threats, hoping it will work: If you don’t listen, we’re not going on vacation.
Struggles to set boundaries because it leads to epic tantrums: It’s like walking on eggshells around your child because you know the second you place a demand on them, the battles begin.
Wants to find a new way to gain cooperation besides punishments and using fear: You want to transform these challenges into moments of connection while still honoring your child’s free spirit!

"She understands the research and combines this with her years of expertise working with children and families to find the most balanced approach to parenting. As an incredibly busy mom who feels underwater most days with three young kiddos, her parenting advice is so solid 110% of the time that it is an invaluable resource to me!"

“I cannot recommend Albiona’s parenting classes more! She is a light and one of the most realistic teachers when it comes to practical ways to parent. She helped me understand my children in ways that made me have more compassion as I walked through different stages with each of them. Through her classes, I recognized that I carry a lot of outdated ways of parenting my kids as I carried many things over from the way my parents parented me. She showed me that I have the ability to parent the way that feels right and there is no one size fits all for children."
