3.Give your strong-willed child choices. ...

4.Give her authority over her own body.

5. Avoid power struggles by using routines and rules.

8.Listen to her/him.

9.See it from his point of view.

10. Discipline through the relationship, never through punishment.

11. Offer him respect and empathy.

12. If you are a born christian like me, bring your child and all your other children(if you have more than one child) before our Lord Jesus Christ, let the word of God guide you in your parenting journey.

    All kids need to hear the word ‘no’, but if you use it constantly, your child may start becoming even more defiant. “Rather than saying ‘No running,’ for example, you could say ‘I need you to walk,’ which is a more positive interaction,” Dr. Raches says. Look for opportunities to praise your child for good behavior as well so it doesn’t feel like he’s always being disciplined or punished.

    We know from science and research that strong-willed kids are often the world changers. They’re natural born leaders, who typically pave the way when no one else will.

    Basically, you’re raising a world changer, and it’s a heavy burden to carry. I know.

    Which is why these five overlooked, yet highly effective tips for parenting a strong-willed child are so important.

    Your strong-willed child wants mastery more than anything.
    Let her take charge of as many of her own activities as possible. Don’t nag at her to brush her teeth; ask “What else do you need to do before we leave?” If she looks blank, tick off the short list: “Every morning we eat, brush teeth, use the toilet, and pack the backpack. I saw you pack your backpack, that’s terrific! Now, what do you still need to do before we leave?” Kids who feel more independent and in charge of themselves will have less need to be op positional. Not to mention, they take responsibility early.
