Helping Your Kids Move from "I Can’t" to "I’ll Try"
Manage episode 487941377 series 3663034
Episode Summary:
Welcome back to our Summer Focus-Building Series here on Decision Tree Learning, the Podcast. Today, I’m talking about a phrase nearly every parent hears: “I can’t do this.” Often, this isn’t defiance—it’s a lack of problem-solving strategies.
In this episode, I’ll share one powerful mindset shift called the Three Tries Rule to help your child move from shutdown to persistence.
What You’ll Learn:
- Teach your child the Three Tries Rule to build resilience
- Model problem-solving by narrating your own process
- Coach your child to try multiple approaches before asking for help
- Use everyday frustrations as growth opportunities
Tools and Resources:
I'll be sharing additional support strategies and simple AI-powered coaching tools in upcoming articles on Substack.
