Laura Dabney outlines a practical approach to handling a disrespectful child by fostering respectful communication and collaboration. Rather than resorting to authoritarian control or permissive avoidance, parents can express their feelings, invite dialogue, and work with their children to find solutions that encourage mutual respect and personal accountability.

Quotes to ponder:

“When a child disrespects you, it hurts. But once you feel the mood problem with yourself, that’s a sign that something is wrong.”

“By giving them the first opportunity to fix the problem, even if they’re 10, shows them you are interested, and that is the key piece.”

“Your child will take this template outside of the family and put it to use in other areas of his life such as down the line with his significant other.”
