Ways to Avoid a Severely Awkward Situation

13. If you’re having trouble making your kids do something

Don’t ask kids if they want to do something. Just give them options to choose from, without being too confusing.

Even though they might resist, chances are they will make an “adult” decision and feel responsible in the end.
