Transcripts For WUSA CBS This Morning 20130925

And Michael Wacha liwith no nohitter. I guess it wasnt meant to be. I must be really easy to make fun of. Which was a bigger deal in your house, golf our politics . Baseball. And all that matters i eat, drink, and obama was like really . On cbs this morning. Dont kid yourself. Wed be screwed without them. This morning they tried the Ben Affleck Batman thing. Announcer this mornings eye opener is presented by toyota, lets go places. Captioning funded by cbs welcome to cbs this morning. Good morning, norah. Good morning, charlie. We begin in war where the lights have been on all night in the u. S. Senate. Heres a live look. One republican senator has been speaking for more than 16 hows. Ted cruz is uraming his colleagues to cut a bill funding the health care bill. But the senate is expected to approve a bill to keep the government running without any changes to obama care. Nancy cordes is on capitol hill. Nancy, what a night. Reporter it sure is, norah and charlie. Good morning. Its already the fifth Longest Senate floor speech of all time, hes still going getting help at this hour from senator marko rubio asking him questions to keep him going. This is a move that some republicans call courageous. Others call pointless because republicans dont have the votes to defund the president S Health Care law. Cruz took to the floor, ditching his trademark cowboy boots in favor of comfy sneakers. I intend to support this until i am no longer able to stand. Hes a passionate opponent of the president S Health Care law. He has detailed his concerns. Its forcing america into parts of ee greemgs work. This law is a train wreck. Reporter a handful of republicans have joined cruz on the floor. I want to thank you for having the courage to stand here and raise the concerns that im hearing all over my state. But Many Senate Republicans do not support cruzs efforts. They fear republicans will get blamed if the government doesnt get funded in time. My own view is it would be to the advantage of our colleagues and the house who are in the majority to shorten the process. In a new cbs New York Times poll, more than three quarters of the americans, say its not a way to negotiate. Cruz says its the democrats who are to blame. We should not shut down the government and i sincerely hope senator reid and president obama do not force a Government Shutdown simply to force obama care on the american people. Reporter he did veer off topic once in a while. When your dad makes pancakes its very cool when he can flip them high and catch them. Reporter at one point he read two bedtime stories for his young daughters watching on cspan. I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them, sam i am. Reporter there has been a debate whether this is a true filibuster. Because of rules he cannot block the funding bill thats on floor for today. Theres no debate, norah and charlie that this is a triumph of the will over the bladder, however, if he wants to nab that first spot for the longest time hes going to have to keep talking on the senate floor until about 3 00 this afternoon. Nancy cordes, thank you. At United Nations obama made the case for a reboot with u. S. Relations with iran. Hou three hours later Hassan Rowhani echoed the same. Americans are not hopeful about relations with iran. Only 22 in the new cbs New York Times poll expect relations to improve, and on the president s handling of relations with iran, more disapprove and that approve, 44 to 39 . Margaret brennan is was. Good morning. Good morning to you, norah and charlie. The white house sees the best diplomatic chance for an opening with iran in years and president obama will make it the main foe kur next year. He announced that the recent pledge that his country does not want to build a nuclear bomb but says the u. S. Wants concrete proof. I do believe if we can resolve the issue of Irans Nuclear program, that can serve as a major step down a long road toward a different relationship, one based on mutual interests and Mutual Respect. President rowhani said he listened carefully to president obamas speech and said he would immediately start to talk about Irans Nuclear program. Iran seeks instructive engagement with other countries based on Mutual Respect and common interests and does not wish to seek tensions with the united states. President rowhani did lash out at the u. S. Led sanctions that are cripping their economy but the u. S. Says that may be the real reason theyre reaching out. They want them lifted. There were rumors they might shake hands at the lunch. Carter met the shaw in 1977 and the first that brought the ayatollahs to power. It didnt happen. The white house offered to have the two meet for a few minutes but the iranians declined. A Senior Member said even a brief president ial encounter was too complicated for iranians to do at this point. Later he had this message to americans in a cnn interview. I bring peace and friendship from iranians to americans. President obama told john kerry to take the diplomatic lead on these negotiations, and tomorrow the secretary of state will meet his iranian counterpart. That will be the highest level negotiation between the u. S. And iran about that countrys nuclear program. But as you can imagine, there are skeptics of capitol hill and israel who are saying proceed cautiously. But does the Administration Believe this is the beginning . They believe in the words of the administrations official this is the best chance in years particularly when you look at the administration that came before rowhani. So you can say these are iranians and theres hope but theres question. It clearly opened the door for some sort of meeting, at least a handshake. A chance encounter that was going go set up. So was president obama snubbed . Well, the white house sort of gestures toward domestic issues back in iran. One, rowhani was elected president. He doesnt run the country. The ayatollah does. He doesnt run it the way the president is. But its also the optics of shaking hands, theyre difficult. Well see on thursday. There might be some action. Tennessee Top Republican bob corker. Hes an outspoken voice on the president s Foreign Policy and the Vice President. Good morning. Good morning, charlie. How do you see this convenient in United Nations in which there was a snub or a failure to shake a hand and to move to perhaps a very fascinating photo op . You know, charlie, its hard to say. You and i may have had this kind of situation. I know norah has where youve had a suitor that was overly aggressive, but, you know. Who knows what happens. I can tell you that theres no question that there wouldnt be an opportunity to even discuss diplomacy had we not enacted in a bipartisan way the sanctions that we now have on iran. So weve had two rounds of those. Theyve had an impact. Thats one of the reasons that rowhani was elected. Hopefully we can build off the gains that have been created through the sanctions that were created in a big way but it still has. Changed their behavior yet. You believe theres real opportunity here and you have to take him seriously in a sense to see what theyre prepared to do. You know, charlie, i think you always have to hope that diplomacy is going to work. I think at the same time what you dont do is turn off the sanctions that you have in place. You leave the pressure there. Look. You know, i do think that we sent some mixed signals into the region recently. I dont know how seriously people are taking these things right now, but, look. I think again we need to continue to try to solve this diplomatically. Obviously the iranian ownership of Nuclear Weapons is unacceptable. Look. I think we need to use every resource we have and see if theres an opportunity here. I will say that while his tone is different than weve had in the past, his actions have been very similar in the past to what weve seen, and that is a continued building toward them having a nuclear arm a meant. Again, i think we need to use every resource we have. The sanctions are a best asset to hopefully continue down this path, okay . I want to turn now to whats happening in the u. S. Senate and whats happening within your own party. One of your colleagues, senator cruz, has pulled an all nighter. Its not a filibuster because the fate of this is already decided. Are you concerned about that that what your fellow senator is doing could hurt your partys chances of taking back the u. S. Senate . Well, it depends on the outcome. I think that, you know, all of us are unified and hoping that obama care will be delayed, defunded, you know, that we can do something relative to the individual mandate, that we can do something relative to the medical device. Its obviously the tactics that are being deployed. But is senator cruzs speech going to do anything to help delay that for a year which is the compromise youre pushing for . Well, we still have some time. And, norah, you know, watching washington for all the time we have, nothing typically happens until the last minute. I think the house is already as we know looking at sending Something Back thats a be little different than a pure defunding. A delay on the individual mandate may be dealing with the opmps. I think you know that congressional members and their staffs have ended up being dealt with a little differently than the rest of the country. So i think there are a number of things we might accomplish over the next week as long as we dont cause this to go beyond the time of the government needing to be funded. Senator, no one doubts senator cruzs opposition to obama care and desire to be funded but some people are saying this is about personal ambition and being seen fighting for this because it serves his own president ial ambitions. You know, i think its best for all of us i mean people are here for different motivations, and i think to try to ascertain what somebodys individual motivation is, you know, probably its not a good thing for me to do. But, look. I came here to try to help create our country an opportunity for our country to move ahead, put in place good public policy, and hopefully over the course of the next several days well have an opportunity to do that. Thank you. Thank you very much, okay . Thank you, senator. Kenya begins an official mourning today for the islamic siege. They claim many more are tracked in the rubble. Theyre searching for more victims this morning. Charlie dagata is at the scene in nairobi. Charlie, good morning. Reporter good morning, charlie and norah. Theres a sense of relief as the siege has come to an end but theyre also coming to terms with the shock over whats unfolded in the past few days, the fate of the hostages and what took place inside the mall. Flags will flying at halfmast as kenyans are mourning the loss of the hostages at the westwood mall. Details are finally beginning to emerge about the assault. Whats clear is none of the hostages made it out aliej. This video shows the actions of those who braved the assault. Kenyan authorities reportedly tried to negotiation but they didnt even respond. There are also reports that as a helicopter hovered overhead they started executing hostages, tossing their bodies off the roof. Any rescue operation was further hampered by smoke from fire set by gunman. In announcing the siege was over, the president said kenya stared down evil and triumphed. We have shamed our attackers. They said three floors in the mall collapsed and several bodies were buried beneath the rubble includesing those of terrorists and hostages. The sheer amount of fire power used in the fourday siege have led kenyan investigators to chase leads. Some of the ataerks rented a shop in the mall for the last three months, sneaking in ammunition. Intelligence reports suggested two or three americans may have been among the attackers but he said he ordered forensic attackers to examines the bodies to determine their identities. 11 suspects have been arrested. Five gunmen were shot inside the mall. Presumably the rest were killed in the onslaught. The death toll stands at 61 but the death toll is likely to double as theyre able to retrieve more bodies in the mall. Norah and charli thank you.

Coming up in this half hour, charlie and former Vice President al gore talk about the environmental. Well see what brought former president bill clinton by. Plus it gives new meaning to change in the weather. Lasers could be used to bring rain and divert lightning. For a story like that, weve got to talk to professor me cho kaku. Hes in the green room. Hes going to explain why its a real possibility and not far off. This weeks performance by Oracle Team Usa at mercks cup. They were about to lose. Now theyre battling back and the series is tied. The teams ride 72footlong catamarans with sails more than 130 feet tall. They raise a 10mile course in San Francisco bay. The finale is this afternoon and as Bill Whitaker report this is one of the closely fought cusp in the history of the competition. Few expected a comeback of this magnitude. Americans are out in front. Wow. On the brink of a week, Oracle Team Usa pulled out all the stops on tuesday. We have never seen anything like this. Reporter and soon the kiwis from new zealand were left in their wake. As they come to the line. The comeback is complete.

It litts the boat out of the water. The man largely responsibility for the new design is american sponsor larry ellison. Charlie rose spoke to ellison about it before the sport of the cup. I thoink make this sport an economically viable sport we have to have fast modern boats. It has to be attractive to kids. It has to be risky. It has to look risky, be a little bit risky. Reporter but with that risk comes tragedy. A sailor died and team usa flipped its boat last fall. There are also complainted that the price tags of the new boats which cost more than 100 million to build and maintain have built a sport that excludes most. This is not your grandfathers american cup. Reporter for knows those plans have been placed on hold. This has been the longest finals in the cups history. The most exciting day of all of our lives and we wouldnt want to be anywhere else. Reporter from cbs this morning, Bill Whitaker, los angeles. I still dont know the toons your question. What have they done to come back from an 81 deficit to tie the series up. Yeah. I mean its an incredible comeback. You know larry el i sop. You talked to him. He deal anything to win. You know he will. Its a billionaire sport and hes very competitive. Bill clinton was not expected to show up as a session with his former Vice President al gore. They have rarely been seen together since leaving office in 2001. But the three of us held an impr impromptu session yesterday talking about Energy Issues and Climate Change. Where are we going to sit . Why dont you sit in the middle. I still remember the v. P. Gig. All right. So how did this happen . You were just backstage and say hello . I didnt think al was going to come. Them he had to come to new york and he comes by. Then he had this interview with you and then we started talking about Climate Change and this u. N. Report thats coming up in a if days. It took you, charlie, to get us to sit down jointly. Ill take that credit if youll give it to me. Hes a better politician than i am. We do talk a lot. About everything. Mmhmm. But especially about all this energy business. First of all, when i cant figure out whats going on, i call him and he explains it to me. I try. I understand. And then i just kind of go around trying to figure out how to put together probablies that will work. But its a fascinating issue. You know, i still believe that were going to do the right thing before calamity hits the earth, but were pushing it. When people feel and understand these extreme weather events, theyre way more common and way more severe than they used to be. And even people who dont want to get into a discussion about Global Warming are looking and noticing and saying, hey, weve got to do something about this. Whats interesting about this, you and i would both like to sit there with these two guys and talk about politics, talk about life after the presidency, and the respected ways and directions their career has taken. This is the first time, al gore has said to me, they sat on the same stage in ten years. Incredible. As we know, there was a lot of tension when they left the office and al gore lost. He said the president didnt do much. No doubt. It was extraordinary to see them. How about al gore, he looks like he lost a lot of weight. He looks good. And hes funny, what he said there. All the things they could talk about. This was specifically to the environment. Still dont know why the president wanted to come out. But he did. I had one minutes notice to say the president would like to come out. All the questions you want to ask, you think, god, maybe another time. Maybe another session. They were talking Climate Change yesterday and now were learning that scientists and researchers are looking at how to change the weather on purpose. Thats right. Laser, now could one day manipulate rain and lightning. Cbs contributor michio kaku is a professor. Nice to see you. Extraordinary seeing bill clinton and al gore. It was. Lasers, really, to change the weather . Thats right. As mark twain famously said, everyone complains about the weather but no one does anything about it. Well, instead of doing a rain darngs we physicists are firein lasers into the sky to actually bring down lightning bolts. But this is experimental. Its experimental, however, in the laboratory so far it works. When you have water vapor and dust particles or ice crystals, you can precipitate rain. It condenses around the seeds. These seeds can also be created by laser beams. You rip apart electronilek ee electrons. This fascinates me because in part i remember reading stories that china used this during the olympics, that ussr used it after chernobyl to create rain clouds. Do those really work then . They have some capabilities now . Inconclusive. Even in the 60s they used it to bring down monsoons during the vietnam war to wash out the vietn vietnam cong. Alleged to. Lajed to. Nothing con cluesive. This time were bringing in the laws of physics rather than waving our hands and whispering mum beau jumbo. In the laboratory, sure enough, they precipitate rain out of water vapor. Sure enough you can bring electricity down the beam. What does it mean for drought areas that need to have rain for crops and if they dont have them, the consequences are famine . The bad news is if its a clear blue sky, its not going to do anything at all. It already takes water vapor in the air and condenses it. However, for floods, for agriculture, for farmers, for people planning wedding parties, football game, you name it. Outdoor events and agriculture and flooding and eve hurricanes, all of them could be subject to weather modification. Incredibly interesting. Professor michio kaku. Thank you so much. And some are calling new burger king french fridays low fat a new science. Others are calling it an act of desperation. Well look at that on cbs this morning. Across america people are taking charge of their type 2 diabetes with noninsulin victoza®. For a while, i took a pill to lower my blood sugar, but it didnt get me to my goal. So i asked my doctor about victoza®. He said victoza® is different than pills. Victoza® is proven to lower blood sugar and a1c. Its taken onceaday, any time, and comes in a pen. And the needle is thin. Victoza® is not for weight loss, but it may help you lose some weight. Victoza® is an injectable prescription medicine that may improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise. It is not recommended as the first medication to treat diabetes and should not be used in people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. Victoza® has not been studied with mealtime insulin. Victoza® is not insulin. Do not take victoza® if you have a personal or Family History of medullary thyroid cancer, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to victoza® or any of its ingredients. Symptoms of a serious allergic reaction may include swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat, fainting or dizziness, very rapid heartbeat, problems breathing or swallowing, severe rash or itching. Tell your doctor if you get a lump or swelling in your neck. Serious side effects may happen in people who take victoza®, including inflammation of the pancreas pancreatitis , which may be fatal. Stop taking victoza® and call your doctor right away if you have signs of pancreatitis, such as severe pain that will not go away in your abdomen or from your abdomen to your back, with or without vomiting. Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take and if you have any medical conditions. Taking victoza® with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, and headache. Some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may cause kidney problems. If your pill isnt giving you the control you need ask your doctor about noninsulin victoza®. Its covered by most health plans. Started using bb cream about a year ago. Its great because it hydrates, its a foundation, its a concealer, its a primer, it has sunscreen. I love it. And its really quick. That is very helpful, for me.

Republican ted cruz is leading one of the longest oneman debates in senate history, but hes not expected to win this newest fight over obama care. Irans new president has no time for president obama at the u. N. Was it a deliberate snub or just one of those things . And a new report says it might be good for parents to argue in front of their kids. Yikes. Well talk with a top psychologist. But first heres todays eye opener at 8 00. Hes already the fifth longest and hes still going. Ted cruz of texas is urging his colleagues. I will confess as we sit here, im a little bit tired. The white house says it sees the best chance for a diplomatic opening for iran in years and the Obama Administration will make Nuclear Negotiations the prime focus. Theres a sense of relief here in nairobi, but theres also a sense of a state of shock in terms of the events that have unfolded in the past four days. Team usa roars back to life at the americas cup. We are all even. It will be winner take all. We can send lasers in the sky to precipitate rain clouds. This is potentially a gamechanger. Where should i sit. Wherever you like. Kwhie dont you sit in the middle. I still remember the v. P. Gig. Whether there was a snub or failure to shake a hand. Its hard to say. You and i may have had this kind of situation. I know norah has where youve had a suitor that was overly aggressive. Im charlie rose with gayle king and norah odonnell. The senate votes today on a bill to keep the government running. Later this week democrats are expected to strip out a provision that would defund president obamas hem care fund. Many of his fellow republicans say the texas senator is hurting the gop. A cbs New York Times poll out this morning shows that 70 of americans do not think that republicans are trying to work with the president. Nancy cordes is on capitol hill. Nancy, good morning to you. Good morning, norah, charlie, and gayle. Thats right. Privately there are Many Senate Republicans fuming about this move. They call it grandstanding. They say any move that looks like its going delay government funding and cause a shutdown could end up hurting republicans but senator cruz says he is aware of the criticism and isnt bothered by it. The senator from texas reporter cruz took to the floor at 2 41 eastern time ditching his trademark cowboy boots in favor of more comfortable black sneakers. I intend to support the defeat of obama care until i am no longer able to stand. Reporter as the hour wore on, he has detailed his concerns. The most ee fwreejs parts of obama care have not kicked in yet. This law is a train wreck. Reporter in a new c bbs New York Times poll, they say its not a way to negotiate. As the speech wound into the night cruz did run off topic once in a while. When your dad makes pancakes, its cool when he can do a flip up high and catch them. Reporter at one point he even read two bedtime stories for his young daughters watching on cspan. I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them, sam i am. Reporter he also quoted from the hit cable show duck dynasty. He referenced 60 minutes. He read a bible story but always brought it back. I have to say at this hour, the 18th hour, hes still going strong and could do it for a while. The president opened the door for improved relations with iran, but several attempts to reach out to irans president did not materialize. There was talk that the two might shake hands at luncheon, but roh Hassan Rowhani did not. The government is now showing us the price of insurance under the new health care law. The socalled bropz plan with basic coverage would cost an average of 163 a month for a 27yearold nonsmoker. Silver plans with broader coverage would average 203 a month. The most expensive gold planrun 240 a month. Heres good news. The price of regular unleaded gas averages 3. 45 a gallon. Thats down six cents from a week ago and three cents from a year ago. Were joined at the table. Always good to see you especially when you have good news. Why is it happening . For a couple of reasons. The price of crude has backed down. Were getting reports from the president mr. Rowhani that they could more crude on the market. Our refinery is running at the highest rate ever, this time of the year. Oil crude production is as high as its been since the Reagan Administration and weve got an aging population thats driving less and turning over the car fleet faster than ever. I think thats a very interesting story that u. S. Oil production is up so much, about how much were producing our own energy. Are we becoming less dependent . We are. In a way you can call ben bernanke the accidental architect on this because oil Interest Rates have kept Interest Rates relatively high. So theres a lot of oil exploration. On the other hand low Interest Rates are leading to people buying vehicles. Vehicle sales are as high as theyve been in a generation and the new cars are get 25g miles per gallon. Even though you watch nfl Football Games and you see them. How low can it go . I think well go lower than last year, which was 3. 21 for the year. And i think an awful lot of states will be able to buy less than 3. If you use a gas buddy app, you can buy it for less than 3 in some states. If you aggressively look, you can do 25 cents better. Over the long run national gas will be a huge contributor to all of this. Well, national gas is a huge contributor to the refining renaissance. Its one of the reasons why we can manufacture products like gasoline and diesel much cheaper than everybody else. The point of getting people to use natural gas vehicles, thats a little bit touchier because of infrastructure. But they can be used for other structures and therefore have an impact. Yes. Well probably see natural gas used for a lot of long haul trucks in the next decade juror amazons Ceo Jeff Bezos is introduced another form of it. When he sat down with us, we wanted to know more about his recent acquisition of the washington post. It is losing ad revenue and subscribers.

Believe as this continues to develop, its going to be a whole new golden age for journalism, and im excited about that. Im very optimistic about it. Jeff bezos paid 250 million for the paper.

Theres bert and ernie, cookie monster, and of course, the indomitable miss piggy. Now you can say the gang is back together, preserved forever at the smektsonian. Now they belong to the nation. Reporter on tuesday, the family of jim henson, the Creative Genius behind the muppets donated 25 of their fathers puppets. Helpsons characters are now Cultural Icons embracing Chelsea Clinton in new york, doing interviews with bob schieffer, and, of course, with the man who talks to everyone whos anyone. Brian j.

Its like, ive got a dream and im going to make people happy by singing and dancing. I really feel like that was my dad. So many of us feel like, you know, we grew up with these characters. So i asked Cheryl Henson what was it like to really grow up with them as the child of jim henson.

Well look at new research and what it means for your bone health. Thats next on cbs this morning. Nothing says, im happy to see you too, like a milkbone biscuit. Say it with milkbone. Goglossophobia, is the fear of public speaking. I intend to speak in support the only thing we have to fear is. Fear itself. In our morning rounds, two important studies about bone health. One looks at vitamin d and the other looks an bone scans. Some 9 million have osteobrother sis and others are affected. Lets start with that old vitamin d. Vitamin d is just the new black. Its in the news every single day for something, but today this study looked specifically at whether very high dose of vitamin d supplements could prevent osteoporosis, one in particular, bone turnover or bone destruction. What they found is vitamin d supplements taken alone didnt help at auchlt taken with calcium helped and calcium alone helped but taken alone it does not strengthen the bones. Is vitamin d the new miracle vitamin . Its hard to argue that because its been linked to everything else, but in this context, its not the only answer. Along with calcium it can help our bones. Where do you get in natural foods. Its found in fortified milk, eggs, fish, everywhere. Calcium too. In my practice, i recommend women take a supplement because in reality we dont always get all we need from our diet. We should, but days happen when we just dont. Yeah. You describe it as a new black and black goes with everything. Can there be too much of a good thing taking vitamin d . Yes, there absolutely can. Very high dose vitamin d are recommended against. And calcium, too, has been linked to an increase in heart attacks. You have to go over with your doctor about what your specific needs are. Is there something we should be taking every day . Should we be taking it every day . Sniet really depends on the individual. I cant say yes or no. I personally take a vitamin d and calcium every day and a fish oil, but it depends on the person. If you eat very well you absolutely dont need a supplement. Nobody needs a supplement if youre eating well. Okay. Dr. Holly phillips, youre supposed to tell us about the frequency of bone scans. You dont need to take scans as frequently as you thought. Most are having them between two and four years. Less is more. Before you go for your routine, make sure you really need it. Thank you.

He tweeted, were back. Daily mail reports a new born circuits to the wave. Researchers say its a natural biological reaction. It is a good smell. Baby smell. When it comes to arguing with your sense, conventional wisdom says never, ever, ever do it in front of your kids but a new article in the watt streel journalist says it may help people later in life. Good morning do you both. Andrea, were going to start with you because this goes against everything that most of us have been told. How do arguments help . Basically every person is going to have disagreements in their life, and what child psychologists i talked to said is that, you know, its better to be able to model constructive conflict. Thats a real gift you can take to your kids. Isnt it hard to expect rational behavior in an irrational moment. Sometimes youre so amped up, its hard to be rational. Absolutely. They say because its so difficult you want to keep it behind closed doors. But the key is really okay, if youre going to argue, how can you do it in a healthy way that does sort of give these skills but doesnt traumatize them because theres our research that says toxic arguments can be very damaging and lead to anxiety, depression, and behavior problems. In fact, doctor, the research is very clear about that. Theres effects on childrens brains, even infants. You can see changes in their brain. Even while theyre sleeping. Yes. So the thing thats really important is that high conflict arguments are bad for kids. You dont want your kids to see youre not on a united front. Even kids are easy. Moms easy, im going to ask that. Dads hard. They dont want that. They want parents to be bonded. The problem with fighting constructively is it can get hot very quickly so some of the expert suggested a fiveminute rule or if you get to the five on a ten scale, thats bad. I have to tell you, when i fought wi my when i still fight with my wife, i dont know when im at five. Maybe youre at five and shes at seven. Its a bad idea, especially when theres an audience. The other thing you have to know is if your kids are there, very often if theres boys in the room, it escalates and thats bad for them and you. The other thing i like about your piece, andrea, its not good to fight in front of your kid bus if you can have a healthy disagreement with a positive outcome that that is a foundation for life and ive seen this in my kids school, conflict among kids. That is undervalued. The thing is i talked to several parents that because of the way their own parents fought or didnt fight, some who never fought at all, they felt twlal illequipped and found them very conflict aversed and not been able to handle conflicts so they vowed to do things differently with their children, and that means try to fight in a healthy way. I think the teachable moment might be that if parents know its getting too uncomfortable, either parent can call for a timeout. And thats a good thought. Well discuss this later or get back to it. The other thing is what is the reaction your kid has. If he starts to cry, looks scared, more irritable or seems to be really becoming anxious, thats the signal, the red flag, lets stop this discussion right now and well come back to it wchlll tell you your decision afterward. It was interesting for me. Obviously if your child is crying, thats a nobrainer, but other sorts of cues are a little bit more subtle. The kid freezes or doesnt move for a few minutes or thufrps overed on they try to assert themselves in the argument, try to mediate it or just disbehave themselves to try to divert the attention away. Theres a fundamental point here, that its important to be able to argue and differ over issues because theres always conflict in life among everyone. Without insults and just to do it with respect. To do it with respect in a genuine way. And to remember theyre always listening. I was surprised when you said kids can hear you even when theyre sleeping. Kids like theyre not listening and theyre coloring but theyre really paying attention that thats how this article came to be. I had a 4 1 2yearold daughter and i was grabbling with this in my own marriage and my husband and i have tried to remove ourselves from we were arguing about something in the kitchen. It wasnt getting very heated but my daughter was playing with her dolls in another room and after it was all over, she said, daddy, when mommy said she didnt do something, she didnt do something. We looked at each other like, oh, my gosh, i didnt know she heard any of this. Wed love to have you back and do the flip side of this and the importance of showing affection toward one another in front of your children. The positive concern on this. Thank you very much for being here. Talking about fabulous, jack hanna opened a pet shop soon after college but he always wanted to work at a zoo.
