Dr. Daniel Amen's Secret to Getting Your Kids to Listen to You

We had 6 kids. My wife made a schedule of MY TIME with each of them, each night. The 7th night was for her.

No one is born knowing how to be a parent. It is appreciated to have individuals like dr Amen dedicated to work, research and share his findings. I am not the perfect mom, but definitely his work is helping me to get better as a mother.

Wow! In 7 minutes, so many good things to run with here as a parent.

Thanks so much Dr Amen, this is really an insight. I grew up with toxic parents and now that I'm raising mine, I've started noticing some traits in my parents in me that I don't want for my children. Applying this teaching will really help me.

From what I've seen when there's a connection there's respect and they seem to care more about their behavior and they care about your opinion.

My 6 yr old is super sweet and still sleeps next to me for bedtime(has been ever since he was a newborn). He does face my personality, he’s sensitive like me. I’m grateful we have a great relationship and good connection. He doesn’t have any video games or iPads. We do play Pac-Man on our smart tv for maybe 30 min together once a month, and he doesn’t get upset when we turn it off. I’m very hesitant for when the time comes to give him a cell phone. Perhaps we won’t get a smart phone and just one for communication when needed and that’s it.

Just subscribed because this video tells me I will find great help here to be a better custodian of God's precious treasure committed to me.

Great lessons. This video appeared on perfect time in my life. Thank you doctor! 🙏

like button hit.. i don't agree with everything Daniel says but, the experience and knowledge is of an extremely high standard and this man has done so much for the promotion of neurology / electronegativity in the brain etc... Big respect for you!

Needed this been struggling with getting my daughter to listen to me but I'm learning that I need to listen to her

You're absolutely right. The hard part though is when you have 4 kids ... 20 minutes of uninterrupted 1:1 special time for all 4 is hard to achieve

I have a 3 year old and this is wonderful.

I wish I could go back and do a redo with my now grown sons. Grandparents get it right after making many mistakes.

Mother of six - this will help our family thank you 😊

Thanks Dr. Amen. You've really had a profound impact on my own brain health – and this video struck a chord with me as well. I'll incorporate this with my son, makes a lot of sense to me.

Enjoy our kids. Some of my best memories are playing Barbie and Construction Zone Trucks with my kids in the yard. Or setting up the sprinklers to spin around for running through in the summertime or slip & slides or crafting and coloring with them and just reaponding to whatever comes up. Love the point here about these days everybody is talking at each other rather than with one another. It makes the world feel so cold and hard. So those moments of Barbie or Excavation time to build the racetrack for the hot wheels is amazing.

Thank you for the wonderful reminders! God bless you and your family!

I want to spend more time with my kids and actively listen to them

This is what I attempt to do.. but anymore my son has become so combative & argumentative.. I struggle immensely to not be reactive despite my best efforts. 😔We used to be close, special time used to bring great connection. Now all he wants is screens & talks back & I feel like I’m failing & he pushes me away more & more.

Thank you so much, i have learned some very important things from you here dear Dr.Daniel. 🙏🏻🕊❤️‍🔥Time is Love❤️‍🔥🕊🙏🏻 🙏🏻❤️‍🔥Full attention is Love❤️‍🔥🙏🏻
