The One Thing You Need to Hear About Your Child's Behavior

Hello there! Today on the podcast I am sharing maybe the most important thing you have heard in a while about your child's behavior. We don't talk about it, we don't realize it, and we definitely don't give ourselves slack for it. So, listen up, because today I'm going to hand you the knowledge you need so you can let yourself breathe when it comes to raising your children. Later on, I'll be mentioning my Regain Control course, a course to help you use those positive parenting strategies in your home. You can check it out at  www.bit.ly/regaincontrolnow. Buckle up! Let's get to it! The idea for this episode came from a guest expert interview I was honored to be a part of, and I had a conversation with a few mamas about managing their child's behavior. They asked the typical parenting questions: How do I respond to this? How do I respond when my kid snatches another kid's toy? Is this typical child behavior? Is it normal for my kid to tantrum and hit? Should I be concerned about this? Should I be concerned that my child doesn't stay with an activity for very long? Are people going to view my child as the bully for inappropriate behaviors like pushing or hitting? First, hear this: You are an amazing parent for even worrying about these things, for being concerned about your child's behavior, for confronting your own fears related to how your child behaves, and for seeking deeper knowledge and insight into why your child is doing what she is doing. Seriously, kudos to you because not all parents are thinking these things. Now on to the one thing you need to hear about your child's behavior: it has everything to do with how they learn behavior. Because children aren't born knowing how to do things or to have social skills, it doesn't seem so much of a threat to us as parents. It's not that something is wrong with our child because he pushed another kid. It's not that something is wrong with our kid because she snatches toys. Instead, we look at it as an opportunity for our child to learn how to behave appropriately in that situation, in that specific context. And the fact that children CAN LEARN how to do these things – to share, to take turns, to say “excuse me” instead of push – we can take a breath and not put so much weight on ourselves for needing a perfect child. And because our children can learn, we can teach them to respond appropriately in a given situation. It's not that something is inherently wrong with our child or with our parenting. Instead, it's an opportunity for growth – and that's an amazing thing! You can begin improving behavior with simple strategies, like what I share in my 3 Hacks to Make Behavior Stop at www.bit.ly/3tipsfreebie. I hope these words have been just a reassuring for you and hit home for you just as the mamas I chatted with a few months back. Knowledge is power, and learning is even more powerful.

Today on The Negotiation, Todd speaks with Ann Lee, author of What the U.S. Can Learn from China (2012) and Will China's Economy Collapse? (2017). Having risen to fame for predicting the market crash of 2008, today she is a leading authority on international finance and economics.Ann worked on Wall Street soon after graduating from business school, but made the transition to academia in 2006 once she foresaw the credit crisis. In 2008, she was invited to teach on credit markets and credit derivatives as a visiting professor at Peking University in Beijing. Chinese policymakers quickly caught wind of Ann's expertise in this area once the market crashed, and she was subsequently approached to help them navigate the financial crisis which followed. She published her first book a few years later, which received worldwide acclaim and instantly gave Ann a global following.When asked what readers can expect to learn from What the U.S. Can Learn from China, Ann says the message is to “stop demonizing [China]. As wonderful and as powerful as the U.S. is, it does not have a monopoly on good ideas.” She adds that the book is not meant to endorse one country as being better than the other. Rather, it is meant to help readers open their mind to cultural nuances present in the way each country approaches different issues.Ann was able to predict the global financial crisis thanks to her experience working on Wall Street. To her, the biggest problem was that there was too much power in the hands of the federal reserve, big banks, and other prominent financial institutions of the time. In other words, innovation was nowhere near as important as money. China, on the other hand, approached finance as a tool for nation-building, similar to the attitude displayed by the Founding Fathers of the United States.“Doing business in China is like doing business anywhere else.” The important thing is to do your due diligence before making any sort of investment or negotiating with a local business. China is actually ranked as one of the most open countries to do business with. Hypercompetitiveness is the only factor that Ann highlights—there is a lot of ambition in the country. At the same time, there are fewer regulations in China than there are in many Western countries. Ann goes as far as saying that “it is almost too capitalistic in China.”Ann also touches on the attention-grabbing title of her second book, Will China's Economy Collapse?. In 2015, many on Wall Street believed that China was on the verge of collapse due to a highly volatile stock market and rapidly shrinking currency reserves.

On this episode, Jesse & Matt discuss their fraught and less than ambivalent feelings about their first time at Southern California's Politicon, and provide a discerning look at how it represents the shallow conceptions of what politics so often involve, and how it could have been reimagined as a democratic space for transformational insights and real debates. The majority of the podcast will discuss solutions to create a utopian future (or at least one that guarantees The Golden Square) by combining the co-hosts' deflowered experience at Politicon with Episode 12's arm-wrestling over how to get to this future they keep pressing for.

Quick Takeaways from Podcast MidAtlantic Patience is a gentle version of courage - Kathy Kelly Special Mouse Podcast Podcasting Changes Live - Jeff Bradburry and Scott Swanson Watch other Media Types - Jeff Bradburry and Anythony Minaya Tell great stories - everyone Being Creative is fun. Podcasting Changes Lives I'm definitely having Jeff on my show in the future. The great thing that happened this weekend is person after person would share a "because of my podcast" story and I need to have them on the show. Jeff does the teachercast, and he helps educators (as a teacher himself) utilize technology in the classroom. He was great to hang out with, and he mentioned that if you help a student that's great (1 person), if you help a teacher that might impact 20 students, if you help a superintendent, that could impact thousands. Scott from Muppetcast shared a story (I need to have him on the show) where a Jr High boy was getting beat up at school because he loved the Muppets. Scott's show showed him that he's not a freak, and it's OK to like the Muppets. What Podcaster's Can Learn from Johnny Manzel I live in Cleveland, Ohio. Out sports teams are not good. We have tremendously talented people like LeBron James and Johnny Manzel, but still we can't win. Last year out football team the Cleveland Browns draft Johnny Manzel with their first round pick. Johnny rubbed his fingers together in a way to say, "I'm going to get paid." It became his signature. It appeared in Johnny's mind that he had achieved his goal. He had maid it to the NFL. The bad news is that is not THE goal of a football player. THE GOAL is to win the Super Bowl. Johnny had a reputation as being a person who was more interested in parties than play books. He always seemed a bit unprepared. This was his first year, but Johnny was now a professional football player. In this league you either carry your weight, or you are traded. As more and more stories of Johnny (more or less) goofing off came to the surface (welcome to being famous), it really appeared that this kid had his priorities out of whack. Paul Colligan has an episode where he said, "Starting A Podcast To Hit iTunes “New And Notable” Is Like Launching A Business To Get Into The Phone Book." This is a classic, and it ties into this analogy. The goal of a podcaster is not to be in New Noteworthy, the goal is to impact your audience. Your goal is to bring value. For some, the goal is to create revenue streams that help supplement their income. When I wrote my book "More Podcast Money" getting it into Amazon was not the goal, the goal was to help people set realistic financial goals with their podcast. Amazon is a tool to help me do that. The 8 Week Myth About iTunes New and Noteworthy In the book Podcast Launch (by John Lee Dumas) a very unfortunate paragraph states that you "Have a mere 8 weeks to be featured within the best podcast advertising real estate on the planet." This needs tweaked. It should read, "You can only be considered NEW for 8 weeks, you can be considered Noteworthy any time." Because of this unfortunate paragraph people are spending all their and effort focusing on getting into New and Noteworthy. This is very much like Johnny Manzel focusing on getting into the NFL. It's not the goal, it's a milestone. In the same way that being drafted into the NFL equals success (as many people get cut, and many first round draft picks never measure up to their potential). You can get into iTunes (I outline the 27 steps here), and to get into New and Noteworthy you pretty much need a pulse. Legal Podcast Music I was told about a new service from Mike Stewart that features a large group of music cleared to be used on your podcast. I play some clips on my show today, and you can find out more at their website. The package contains 150 – 60 second royalty free music themes with license to prove to YouTube or anyone you have my permission to use my music for your videos and podcasts. All the music tracks organized by tempo, feeling and emotion to make underscoring a breeze and easy to fit the them to your video. The music is the product of Mike Stewart (the Internet Audio Guy). he is also a musician with a Gold Record to prove it. I purchased this package as I am familiar with Mike who had a service for a while where you would get 5 themes a month. I've used Mike's music in my podcast for years. There are lots of different genres from Country, Easy Listening, Rock, Holiday, etc. Most of the tracks I enjoyed. The rock themes (not all, but some), are a bit dated sounding to me (like they could be on the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack). When you purchase a package, you know they aren't all going to be winners. Doing the math on this, by just breezing through the different genres I would say I would use 70% of these. There are 150 tracks so that means I would use 105 tracks. The music is $37 for all 150 tracks so that would be ($27/105) 35 cents a track which is much less expensive than the .99 you will pay at Amazon.com (aff link). If you used all 150 track the price would drop to 25 cents a track. Mentioned in this Show Chris Rock and Martin Luther King Jr Blvd. Appendippity Themes Ready to Start Podcasting?

Podcasting and Stalkers When I was growing up my sister gave too much information to a guy she met on the bus. The next thing I know, is she is getting really creepy phone calls. We eventually had to work with the phone company and the local police (and his mother) to get him to stop calling. It was creepy Talking in Generalizations Today Let's not get to tied up in being 100% accurate today? What I mean by this is most stalking situations are men stalking women. In some cases it's men who are creepy. In many cases it's the women who are being too polite. Men are from Marz and Women are from Venus is not entirely accurate. There are always exceptions to the rule. Today, let's generalize and be OK with it. Dr. Steve Albrecht Dr. Steve Albrecht has worked with the San Diego police for years where he spent six years in the Domestic Violence Unit, and he handled over 1,500 cases. He is internationally recognized for his expertise in high-risk HR issues. he has authored many books on the subject of work place violence. Check out  Dr. Steve Albrecht's Books and Amazon.com The bad news about the Internet is when you put information out there, it's out there (pretty much forever). If you don't want naked pictures of yourself (celebrities) on the Internet, then don't post them. For me, I have a Facebook profile for my podcast, and one for my family and fiends. I share different items with different profiles. Some questions we answer: When is sharing personal information too much information? What should I do if someone is crossing the line? When do you get the police involved? All I said was I liked her Steaks... It was the first day of a new job. My boss introduced my to Angie Salsbury. I said, "I like your steaks" (making a silly joke). The next day I was told I would have to apologize. At first I thought my boss was joking, but he wasn't. So I walked over and stated I didn't mean to disrespect her and moved on. She actually was a great person, but I had no idea where she drew her line and I crossed it. The bottom line is (Gentlemen if I can have your attention please), we don't know where the ladies draw the line. I've worked with women who said things that were so over the top sexually explicit that it would make a prostitute blush. We all have our limits. The bottom line is we have to respect each other's boundaries. Don't Be Polite Ladies, I love that you are so loving an caring. This is not one of those times when you need to worry about hurting someone's feelings. You don't have to be mean and call names, but you need to say in clear and precise words that you do not want any further interaction with this person. Do not leave any room for doubts. Don't Let This Episode Stop You From Starting A Podcast There are weird and creepy people who need help every day. You stand next to them at the grocery checkout. You sit next to them at the movies. This is not a huge problem in podcasting, but as more women get into podcasting I wanted to make sure we were all on the same page. I wanted to let you know what to do, and how to act, and who to call if you think you might be having an issue.
