Description

Tired of the whine? Dr. Roger Smith tackles this perpetual (but solvable!) problem in communication. This episode offers a direct, two-part strategy: First, stop whining yourself—listen to your own voice to ensure you aren't correcting your child with a whiny tone. Second, address the issue directly and consistently. Learn how to gently yet firmly request a "normal voice," reinforcing appropriate communication while refusing to reward the whine. Dr. Smith provides tips on how to identify the behavior for your child and correct it away from the heat of the moment for long-term success.
