When Consequences Stop Working: What Most Parents Miss

When Consequences Don’t Work Anymore—What Then?

You’ve grounded them, taken the phone, even tried tough love—but nothing works. If your teenager seems completely unfazed by consequences, this video is for you.

This isn’t about finding a better punishment. It’s about something deeper: the relationship you’ve lost and how to get it back.

In this episode, Dr. Todd shares:
• Why your teen might truly not care about consequences
• How disconnection—not defiance—is the real issue
• Five specific strategies to rebuild the relationship
• What to stop doing immediately
• How to reconnect without rescuing, nagging, or losing your authority

This isn’t about being soft. It’s about being smart—and getting your teen to care again by showing up differently.
