Do kids/teens knowingly misbehave/ manipulate parents? Dr Rosina & Dawson Church

Welcome to the Inspired Children Parenting Show with Dr Rosina McAlpine.

I have heard parents say that their children manipulate them and that children and teens knowingly misbehave and choose not to do the right things. Stay tuned and learn what brain science has to day about this topic from my fabulous guest. Today on the show I am interviewing Dawson Church PhD who has a wealth of knowledge across the areas of health, psychology, neuroscience and spirituality. His principal work is his best-selling book The Genie in Your Genes which reviews the research linking consciousness, emotion, and gene expression.

Dawson Church has also offered a free gift to listeners that you can download at www.dawsongift.com

In this interview you'll learn about how children's brains work - from baby to teenager and how that impacts their behaviour.

Do you have an impulsive 2 year old? Is your teen reckless? In this interview you'll understand why this is and how to support your child's brain development and raise psychologically balanced children.
