Six pages, written by a board-certified behavior analyst. Four are written for your kid, in language and design built for a 10-to-15 year old rather than a worksheet. Two are for you: how to define the target, how to set the number, and how to hand it over.
Your kid picks the thing: phone, bedtime, homework, screen time, money, weekend plans. You both define what "handled" looks like in terms you could actually see. They track it themselves.
The agreement names what happens if it doesn't go to plan, before it doesn't go to plan. No surprise punishments, no rewriting the deal mid-argument, and a miss doesn't erase what's already been done.
How it works
You and your kid sit down and pick one thing they want more say over. Then you write down what you'd need to see before handing it over; not vague, specific. "Homework done" becomes "math and English submitted by 7pm, backpack packed the night before." You also pick the number: five days out of seven, eight out of ten. Not a streak, so one bad Tuesday doesn't sink it. Your kid tracks it themselves on a one-page sheet. On the day they hit the number, the thing you agreed to hand over, you hand over. The tracking stops. The sheet is reusable, so you can run it again with the next thing.
Created by a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst
I'm a mom and a board-certified behavior analyst. I've spent my career working with families stuck in the same loop, remind, argue, remind again and I've been in it myself. Your Call came out of both. It's what I use with my own kids when one of them wants more say over something and I'm not sure I'm ready to hand it over. It isn't therapy or clinical advice. It's a practical tool informed by behavioral science, built to respect a kid's growing need to decide things for themselves.
Hand one thing over.
Six pages. Four for your kid, two for you, and a tracking sheet you can reuse every time you do this again. Motherhood, Applied is educational and informed by behavioral science and ACT. It is not therapy, mental health treatment, or ABA services.
