When Kids Are Wrong & Do Irritating Things: 
Your son tears his pancakes with his bare hands. Your daughter doesn’t clean her room or do schoolwork the way you want. Your child procrastinates. It’s irritating. How can you use these moments to actually teach your child AND bond, rather than creating more power struggles?
