259: Interrupting Kids (Bite Size Nugget)
Description
In this bite-sized nugget, I’m talking about one of the most sanity-sucking habits kids have: interrupting. You know the drill—you finally sit down for a conversation with another adult, and boom, your kid is right there, cutting in with something that definitely could have waited. I’ll share why letting kids constantly interrupt actually creates clingy behavior, how to set healthy boundaries without guilt, and the simple little trick I taught Pascal when he was three that he still remembers at nineteen. Spoiler: it’ll save your sanity, help you finish a sentence, and make people think you’re raising the politest kid on the block.
