How did it go? If you repeat this process for the next 50 instructions/commands you give your child, you will be well on your way to a great habit of regular relational connection with your child! Your relationship will be more joyful, and you will have a full well of positive emotion from which to “draw” from for your next interaction with your child.
Note on DELIGHT: You can’t shortcut this.
Truly, warmly delighting in your child is not and should not be just a means to your end. It can’t be counterfeited, because kids can easily tell when adults are being fake.
Turn this around on yourself: how do you feel when someone interacts with you then suddenly shifts to an underlying meeting request? It’s pure and sincere manipulation.
