    Welcome! I'm Lori, and I founded Teach Through Love because I'm passionate about helping adults resolve daily conflicts and nurture children's development by using conscious communication.
    Parents, teachers, and caregivers are the most influential people in a child's life. My Conscious Parenting Courses and Communication Cards have helped thousands of parents and professionals break free of reactive patterns and unconscious beliefs about "discipline" that keep them stuck in negative cycles with kids.
    I want to help adults increase cooperation and connection by communicating in ways that help kids feel heard and capable of change. We can help them reach their full potential and learn to solve conflicts and collaborate with others when we shift how we respond to their needs and feelings.

    This is exactly why I'm quiet and I stay in my room all day and keep to myself. If I back talk once my parents will go crazy or if I give a good reason to an argument, it is considered "back talk"

      A great deal of it comes from engagement with social media too, you have to admit that. There is a great deal of toxicity coming from sites like tik tok, snapchat, FB, Twitter, etc. that these kids are exposed to unfettered. The fact that it is not widely discussed or considered is a problem. Howuch time are these kids watching the screen on a daily basis? They have no regulatory impulses helping them to self manage, and that leads to significant problems.

    To any parents reading this: I grew up in an emotionally abusive household. Chances are you did too, you probably just didn’t realize it because it was so widely accepted before the 2000s. I implore all of you to please re-evaluate the way you react to your children and make sure you’re not doing anything that’s harming them. Your child’s emotional needs are just as important as physical. There’s a reason behind why your child is acting out. Maybe they feel like you don’t respect them, maybe they feel like they can’t talk to you because they’re afraid of your reaction, maybe the inconsistency of things is overwhelming your child who knows.
    You have to remember that the way they’re reacting is learned. More than likely they learned it from you. You are the first and best example your children go off of. Inform them and correct them gently.
    You wouldn’t respond well if someone got an attitude with you so why do you expect your children to be any different?
    Also respect your children as humans. They need guidance but they are still people.
    From a lot of the parents that I have seen with generation z one big thing they do is neglect their children’s emotional well being. Emotional Abuse is also very common. It’s not wonder a majority are extremely suicidal and depressed.

    Respect is given to those who have earned it. I should not be expected to blindly respect and follow someone just because they gave birth to me whether or not they wanted it to happen. Respect is mutual and avoiding a reasonable conversation with a child just because your "An Adult" is in no circumstances a respectable trait.

  • @ntordel
    @ntordel 5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    A parent/caregiver needs to be taught how to communicate and respond to child/teenager and vice versa. We all need to understand that as humans we all have issues which will make us respond and react differently. Everyone should be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger. Everyone wants to be valued, loved, and heard. Just remember, learn to gauge what is going on in your environment and keep calm when dealing with each other. There is nothing wrong with saying I love you and will try to understand and respect you. Remember hurt, tired, and ill people will communicate out of their frustrations....one of the parties involved must calm down.

    I'm relating to what you are saying here as I was a kid that got into a
    lot of trouble growing up. I've told my wife many times that our home
    was full of constant conflict, it was crazy. But I think that when a kid
    that gets into trouble grows up and becomes a parent, perhaps it gives
    us some insight into how not to do things. My parents always had the
    same solution to every problem - punishment. And the amazing thing was
    this. . . it didn't work! Familiar? It just was a cycle of unending
    conflict. Anyway, I love what you are saying, gonna spend some time
    watching your videos. I'm trying to help parents communicate better on
    my channel also, but I think you have really come up with a powerful
    concept with these cards.

    @Earnshawfully 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I am reading the comments below, which are quite a mixture! I am enjoying your videos, which have a lot of good sense.
    I would add something important. A teen talking back might well be talking back or crying for attention, but a teen is old enough to understand consequences and how to hurt. It is useful to teach your child that you are not just a figure who is in their way, but a person with feelings. This needs to be done with words and briefly, rather than emotional backlash. If any person habitually gets away with very hurtful behaviour, they with continue to use it to get their own way. It should be quite possible to discuss this with a teen, after the heat of the moment.

One day I annoyed my brother back and when my dad stuck up for my younger brother and I snapped back and said that he needed to develop some tolerence. He looked pissed but defeated.

    How do you deal with a kid who is doing something damaging, and then you tell them to stop it, and they start whining that they're not doing anything wrong? I had a nice art pen that a ten year old got a hold of, and I could not get him to give it back. So I told him not to press too hard, but he didn't realize how easy it was to press too hard with it. When I said "that's it, I want my pen back now, you're pressing too hard," he started whining and talking back to me, telling me that he wasn't pressing hard, and just whined and whined until he got his way. Now my art pen is broken and I am incredibly frustrated. This is a boy I babysit regularly and I want to know how to deal with this situation better in the future.

    I was about to make the decision that she needs to be punished for disrespecting me then I realized it was me that was insecure. I am so glad I didn't punish her. I just explained to her that I'm a softy and I would try to loosen up and learn how to take a joke again like I used to when I was young and care free. We are talking alot now and she is getting very attached!!! It feels Soo good.

      Look at any kind of argument like this, just because they're yelling, doesn't mean you need to be that hyper back. You can simply respond calmly, and collectively, and they will realize how they may be overreacting. Kids need to realize also *some* adults just can't break the habit so easy of yelling because they got yelled at growing up.

    Dear Lori, thank God I came across your channel. You are very practical. My preschooler is 3.6 years. She is not very friendly, gets angry very easily and expresses the same by shouting at other kids. Yes, I have been strict with her and was expecting all to be perfect even though I know the reality still when it comes to application I always fail. She doesn't talk well to her father and always clings to me. Even in school she mostly is comfortable with herself. She shouts and gets angry at everyone but she never did that to me. Sometimes she is extremely stubborn. Many times I tell to myself that I failed as mother. Please help me.

    @jkmineful 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thank you sooooo much!!! We have 5 boys ages 11-2 and it is hard to be sensitive to the individual needs when we are ALWAYS a WE and not a ME. We are a blended family so there has been alot of change and past emotions that we work through. But our boys especially our 11 and 9 yr old have been lashing out pretty hard lately and it makes the other boys react harshly and in turn the whole house turns into reactive impulse do to the escaltion of emotions from everyone. I myself have sensitivity to overstimulation so I am constantly correcting myself to be what I need for my boys. I think If I had ear plugs I could be a more effective parent lol. But one thing I am trying to teach because my time and attention is stretched thin between house hold duties, a mom to multiple children, a wife, work, and whatever else you can throw in there; I need my boys to listen and TRUST me when I give an order or command. Like a simple "no, you can't eat that right now" "no, you can't go to your friends house" or "go to your room" or "hang on just one minute" I usually do not have the time to give the explanation of why I say no in the moment and honestly I feel I shouldn't have to. Mom says = you do. But I hate that cliche of "because I said so". I understand that part of raising is teaching in these moments and explaining the whys and I usually do, but some times I need them to obey first and when I am finished with whatever task, I will be available to explain. But at the same time some times when I go to explain they usually come back with an argument so I feel like I have given them too much of a voice. So I guess my question is how do I get them to obey a simple command and wait patiently for me? I normally follow through with my promises but they do have a history of others in their life not following through so I wonder if that may have something to do with it.

      1. I wont let her go alone with friends who can drive (she is 14 )
      2. She has to wash the dishes she messes up.
      3. I tell her to clean her room. She says I should just leave the door closed. Nope. Being clean keeps the body healthy.
      Then She starts saying "um um" like she trying to think of more stuff
      When she can't think of anything else she gets mad. Sometimes kids really don't have anything of substance to say and they just need to do as their told. I was that lenient understanding parent for too long. Asking tell me more.

We were all teens and we have all felt unheard by our guardians/teachers and parents. I do find that it is helpful to look a the situation from an empathetic place! I feel as if you pretty much just told that lady to pretty much allow her child to be disrespectful and smile about it. I will test this theory and get back to you! Thank you for the information!

      Hi Jowana, Thanks for stopping by. It's normal to feel like we're giving children permission to be disrespectful. That fear is usually connected to a perception that they are more capable than they really are in those moments. But we can't stop what comes out of their mouths and since force creates resentment, it won't likely be a long term solution to our challenges. We're not really allowing behavior. Instead we're making space for conversations about how to be respectful and how to express ourselves responsibly. Everyone needs a place where they can make mistakes without being shamed or threatened. It's only a 9 min video, so this is not a one-size-fits all solution to every situation. It's a a starting point and an example of a process which usually also takes a lot of personal self-healing on our part to fully integrate. Keep going! Good relationships are worth it.

    As a parent this ticks me off. when my child talks back and says why, I explain to him not being an ignorant prick. Unlike most parents I do not silence their ideas. When children feel contained, they fell they do not having basic freedom of speech and it affects them in the future. This leads to the child thinking they must do everything an adult tells them and not question it even if it is bad.

  • @ncwest1984

    But you learned that as an adult. Children need to be children. I feared my mom and it forced me to be quiet and lonely in our relationship. I tried a different approach for my kid, doesn't work. Children need to do what they're told because we are responsible for them and they reflect us. I ask, what's wrong. Talk to me, don't be frustrated. I cannot tolerate kids at their worse. Just try.

    Had an absolutely perfect, loving close relationship with my granddaughter until she turned 10 and a half. Then literally out of the blue she started back talking and being very disrespectful. I was shocked. Her mother claims she does not talk negatively about me at home, but will not discuss it and enables this behavior. I said I can’t have this, and she says fine, she is not allowed to EVER come to my house again. This can’t be good for my granddaughter. I’m heartbroken.

    Conversation is a progression of ideas, "back-talk" is the act of preventing this progress. To move the conversation backward. This is our household definition of the word back-talk. It's a work in progress. Our kids lose screen time for back talking, so we had to define it.

    What if we say something but the parents don’t understand and take it the wrong way every time so now I can’t even talk to them anymore about anything. An example is when we were driving to Home depot and I asked where she wanted me to park and she said it doesn’t matter. But the last time we went to the Home Depot she got super mad and yelled at me about where I parked. So I asked to make sure I parked where she wanted and she just said it doesn’t matter. I said “ok, but last time you got mad about where I parked” and when I parked she yelled at me again. I meant nothing about it but to make sure I parked where she wanted. She was mad and just wanted me to go alone and before I closed the door I said “ok might be longer, it’s one one person going” she yelled at me thinking that I was being sarcastic about it but actually I was just simply saying it’s gonna take longer because I have to run around the store by my self but like I said she took it the wrong way and yelled at me

    • @notgaybear5544

      Where do you want me to park?...that's not back talking especially because she yelled at you before about it. However, “ok might be longer, it’s one one person going” that's sort of back talking because obviously it's going to take one person longer than two. However, what you were really saying is stop being a idiot park the car and let's go already.

I've been very busy lately and haven't given them the amount of attention they're used to. And to be honest I've been separating myself from them finding chores to do instead of spending time with them because they've been so up and down. Which sounds like I'm only making the matter worse. Today I'm taking the steps to change my behavior.

    My nephew's stepmom slapped him in the mouth right in front of me when he "back talked", he was talking to me, not her (I had been his most of the time caregiver before she came along, he was 3 or 4, I was SO terribly upset!!! and NoOne in my family comforted me or backed me up, the worst part was It Was Terribly Physically painful for Him, my nephew, because he had just minutes prior, tripped & bumped his mouth on a table...
    Which mean besides the pain from that, what caused him to stumble... he could have already been tired, or getting sick...
    I didn't even see it as "back talk" I knew he was just telling me something with strong feelings! He is now a teenager and seems emotionally well... i am the one that is scarred, but I already was from my own childhood of emotional neglect... I'm watching this to share with a friend who said her 3yo son "back talks", he is on the Autism spectrum, & I told her he isn't capable of intentionally being rude, he is doing his best to communicate.
    Somehow I forget this with my own daughters...😟 my 7yo is on the Autism spectrum & until very recently I hadn't realized that I am also...we both and my 5yo all have a lot of repairing/healing learning to do...

Whenever I'm trying to continue the conversation by simply responding they always say "calm down" when I was calm they were the ones that were yelling. I don't even know why i said parents when I'm really talking about my mom and her, abusive wife(abusive to me).

I try to tell her things, but everytime we are arguing she blows it back in my face.
