survey (2020), 66% of parents in the United States say that parenting is harder today than it was 20 years ago, in part\u00a0due to technology.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are the common challenges parents face:<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Balance \u2013 parents are stretched thin between work and home responsibilities plus time with kids and their activities.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Communication and Listening \u2013 given that humans hear one word in seven on average and commonly fail to process a \u201cno\u201d or \u201cdon\u2019t\u201d directive, many families experience more miscommunication than actual understanding.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Follow-through and Chores \u2013 because of communication challenges, time challenges, and motivation, ensuring homework and chores are completed is a challenge.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Nutrition \u2013 in a fast-paced environment it is too easy to rely on fast-food, microwave, or processed food choices.\u00a0 Additionally, junk food snacks and sodas are tempting.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Electronic Devices \u2013 more time than ever is spent on phones, iPads, computers, video games, and TV than ever before.\u00a0 This further limits communication and follow-through plus contributes to the nutrition challenges.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Judgement \u2013 in a fast-paced environment it is common to judge quickly and that can get in the way of open communication and understanding.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Aggression \u2013 the school environment is tough for children to navigate and can lead to frustration.\u00a0 Combined with the above, aggression is increasingly common.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 ADHD and Other \u2013 the number of children with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/training\/coach-training-programs-a-la-carte\/add-coach-program-overview.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ADHD<\/a> has steadily increased and now 10% are diagnosed with ADHD.\u00a0 ADHD and other diagnosis bring a whole new set of challenges for parents.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Solutions:<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 If financially able, engage help for cleaning, organizing, babysitting, running errands, cooking, and driving.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Connect with other families to share responsibilities.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Have a family meeting to talk about challenges and strategies then create a plan.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Find counseling for aggression, ADHD, or other diagnosis.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Engage a coach to work with the family as a whole and\/or with individual members.<br \/>\n\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 If time or career allows, parents learning to coach is a value-add at home.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The \u2018why\u2019 of coaching at home is clear.\u00a0 The challenge is in the \u2018how\u2019 of coaching
