Скачать или смотреть Why “Because I Said So” Backfires (Fruit vs Root)

If you’ve ever said “Because I said so,” and your kid obeyed but the room felt colder, you’re not imagining it.
Sometimes you can win the moment and still lose the heart.

A lot of us aim for obedience, but we accidentally train either a robot (compliance) or a rebel (resistance). The better goal is conviction, where your child chooses what’s right because they’re convinced it’s good.

One sentence takeaway: “Because I said so” can win the moment while losing the heart.

Why it’s doable tonight, you only need one calm pause, one root question, and one persuasion line.

Big idea: The goal is not compliance under pressure, it’s conviction that grows from the heart.

Tonight tool: PAUSE → ROOT QUESTION → PERSUADE
