Q1. Daughter talks like a “mean girl” to her sister. Will she talk to everyone like that? 


In this episode I also discuss a common parenting trend I see: The gridlock between parent and teen as the parent says “why should I do something nice for you when you are being so rude and irresponsible” and the child is thinking “why would I want to be nice and co-operate with you when you are so mean to me?”. 


I also shared some great ways for parents to get more involved and learn more about Adlerian parenting ideas. Here are the links: 


NASAP (North American Society of Adlerian Psychology) annual conference June 1-4 in Denver, CO. Check out The Parent Track


ICASSI (International Committee of Adlerian Summer Schools and Institutes) in Dublin, Ireland. I am attending the first week July 30th to Aug 5th, but there is also the second week Aug 6th – 12th. You can do one or the other or BOTH! 


The Daily Adler e-newsletter and The Daily Adler Podcast (hosted by my brother Jeff Knight).
