Parenting Workshop for Defiant Kids & Sibling Conflict Strategies

By Loren Lomme, LPC, RPT

Defiance and sibling conflict are some of the most exhausting challenges parents face. What looks like “not listening,” backtalk, or constant bickering is often driven by developmental needs, emotional regulation difficulties, and a competition for control. If this sounds familiar, attend our parenting workshop for defiant kids and learn strategies to help your family.

Many children push back to assert independence. Others escalate because they lack the tools to manage frustration or perceived unfairness. When these patterns repeat, families get stuck in a cycle of power struggles, leaving both parents and children feeling unheard.

The key is moving from reacting to the behavior to understanding the driver. By learning how to reduce escalation, you can break the cycle and foster a more peaceful home.

How to Reduce Power Struggles with Your Child

Research shows that traditional discipline often fails when dealing with high-conflict behaviors. Parents who see meaningful improvement focus on positive discipline strategies that prioritize connection over conflict.

Effective parenting strategies include:

• Setting clear, predictable limits that don’t require yelling.
• Responding to defiance without entering a “win-lose” power struggle.
• Teaching emotional regulation skills in the heat of the moment.
• Reducing unintentional reinforcement of negative behaviors.
• Strengthening the parent-child bond while maintaining firm boundaries.
