A short parenting monologue arguing that parents commonly yell because they take children’s behavior personally. The speaker contends most child behavior is age-appropriate or instinctual rather than intentionally disrespectful; misattributing intent makes parents more likely to respond antagonistically (e.g., yelling) and implies reinterpreting behavior can reduce yelling.

Chapters

You're taking your child's behavior personally. The most common reason I see in my practice for why parents yell at their kids is that they're taking their kids behavior personally. Like you'll hear me say a lot in my videos. Most behavior in children is a perfectly logical outcome based on their age and their sensitivity and what's going on around them. And most negative behavior in children is based on instinct. When we assume our kids are being disrespectful or intentional in their behavior, we're just more likely to feel justified in being antagonistic towards them, including yelling.
