In this podcast, Dr. Shaw continues to review the "Ten Governing Principles" for effective communication with children.  This avenue of discussion was introduced on Episode 18 of her podcast series when Dr. Shaw first introduced and outlined her concept for a new parenting book on how to get children to listen.  At that time, Dr. Shaw promised that for ten straight podcasts she would delve into a discussion of one guiding principle per episode, and this is the second of those, and the guiding principle she discusses here is NOT OVER-SPEAKING. She provides some great illustrations of how not to over-speak with your child and she explains why it is detrimental to your parent-child communication.
