Tired of Tattling? Here’s How to Fix It for Good

sibling conflicts Feb 15, 2025

Hey there,

 

If you’re tired of your kids constantly running to you with, “Mom, he did this!” or “Dad, she won’t stop!”—you’re not alone! Tattling can be frustrating, and while we don’t want to ignore real issues, we also don’t want to encourage a habit of complaining just to get a sibling in trouble.  That's exactly why I made this week's video!

 

 

So how do you teach your kids the difference between tattling and telling? And more importantly, how do you help them develop a healthier way to solve conflicts?

 

In my latest video, I break down:
✅ The key reasons kids tattle (and what’s going on in their hearts)
✅ A simple definition to help them understand when to come to you
✅ The exact phrase you can teach them to ask for help in a way that fosters problem-solving instead of blame

and there's even some more bonus material to help you focus your parenting on your kids' hearts.

 

These strategies and solutions are based on how Jesus teaches us to resolve conflicts and they really work—I’ve seen them transform how families handle conflict and deal with tattling. Ready to try it?

 

Then check out this week's video!  You'll be so glad you did.

 

All my best,

B.J.
