Say Less, Lead More:

A Guide to Matter-of-Fact Parenting

Stop the power struggles and take back the "leader’s seat" in your home. "When Your Kid Pushes Back, Say This!" is the ultimate field guide for parents who are tired of over-explaining, second-guessing, and getting pulled into emotional back-and-forth

Created by Jaci Finneman, founder of No-Problem Parenting, this guide delivers simple, matter-of-fact language for those high-stress moments when your child tests your limits.

What You’ll Master:

  • Instant Responses: Proven phrases for when your child argues, melts down, blames you, or shuts down.

  • The Power of "Steady": Learn how to hold your ground without fixing, rescuing, or escalating the problem.

  • Effective Disengagement: Scripted exits for when you're too frustrated to answer or when the conversation is going nowhere.

  • Handling the "Unfair": Exactly what to say when your child demands help or calls you "annoying"

Why It Works:

This isn't about forced compliance; it’s about passing the test by saying less and staying steady. When you change your response, you change the direction of the entire moment, even if your child’s behavior hasn’t changed yet.
