Why Won't My Child Listen? – Workshop for Parents & Care Giver

You've said it five times. They haven't moved.

Sound familiar?

You ask nicely. You explain. You repeat yourself - five, ten, fifteen times. And they still haven't put on their shoes, come to the table, or stopped doing the thing you asked them to stop.

By the time they finally listen (if they listen), you have already lost your patience. You've yelled. You feel terrible. And tomorrow, you'll do it all over again.

Here's what most parents don't know: Your child isn't ignoring you on purpose. Their brain is wired differently at this age. What feels like defiance is actually development.

This 3-hour workshop changes that.

What you'll know:

🧠 Why "listen to me" doesn't work - and what to say instead

🛠️ The connection-before-direction method that gets cooperation without conflict

✅ A two-choice technique that gives them agency without losing your authority

😮‍💨 What to do with YOUR body when you feel yourself about to lose it

This isn't a lecture. You'll practice real tools during the session - your actual morning battles, mealtime struggles, and bedtime chaos.

What you'll leave with:

📄 Workshop guide (PDF) with all three tools

💬 Word-for-word scripts for common situations

📝 Your personal action plan - 3 things to try this week

🎥 7-day access to the recording

👥 Optional WhatsApp community for support

Who this is for: Parents of children ages 3-8 who are tired of repeating themselves and ready for something that actually works.

Who's leading this: Preeti Toraskar, Founder of Young SoulTales. Expressive Movement Therapist (completing Master's, July 2026). Trained under Dr Daniel Siegel (the neuroscientist behind "The Whole-Brain Child"). Mother to a teenager. She's been exactly where you are.

Limited to 25 parents - small enough for real interaction.

No yelling. No bribing. No guilt. Just tools you can try tonight.
