Truth to this.

Anxiety causes the exact opposite response you want from your kids:

When you say, "Move, move, get to the car..." instead of running more quickly, your kids move more slowly. Why? Because they know when you are in that anxious mode, nothing they do will please you.

When you lecture your kids constantly, it backfires. They ignore you and discount what you say. The more words you use, the less valuable they become.

When you get on your kids about every little thing, they don't thank you for being so conscientious! They fight you.

When you react to them pushing your buttons, they are now in control of you! The truth is that YOU create so many power struggles over issues that don't matter. All because of your own anxiety.
