Real Hope for Real Change

Concerned About Your Kid?

We all wish our kids came with a manual. From bedtimes to outbursts, homework to high school, parents face new situations daily. Parenting books and experts offer quick fixes that sound good ... until you try them with your kid.

The problem? There are hidden roots below your kid's struggles and behavior issues, and parents aren't equipped to address them.

Discover the roots of your kids' behavior issues and struggles by taking our Child Concern Index (CCI), a powerful assessment tool. Upon completion you'll receive a detailed CCI report unique to your situation and our eye-opening companion book, "What's Really Causing My Kid's Bad Behavior?"

Together the CCI and Book will help you identify the roots of your concerns with your child.

Our patented One Rule Home Child Concern Index (CCI) is like an MRI scan – it reveals the real roots of your child’s problems by evaluating your situation, along with the behaviors and struggles you’re encountering with your child.

So, how does this Child Concern Index work? It’s a powerful online assessment engine that costs you nothing. It takes just 10 to 12 minutes to complete and returns a concern index with recommendations along with a personalized 15 - 20 page report that will help you understand the specific roots underlying your individual child’s challenges.

When you complete the Child Concern Index, you’ll get instant access to the belief-shifting insights in Jeff’s book "What's Really Causing My Kid's Bad Behavior?". The CCI and book are based upon Jeff Schadt’s 20 years of experience helping parents target the roots below their kids' struggles and behavior issues as well as his research with 3,000 kids. All to help you target the roots in your kid’s life rather than whacking away at the surface leading to frustration and concern like it did for Jeff.

Combined the CCI and "What's Really Causing My Kid's Bad Behavior?" will be like turning on a light in a dark room allowing you to get past the unknown so you can determine how much concern, if any, you should have and what you can do to help your child. (In fact the CCI is so detailed, you’ll wonder why we don’t bill you the $60 to $200 other providers charge for similar assessments.)

Imagine Enjoying Being A Family

Maybe it seems like a stretch right now, but we’ve seen enough families heal that we know what God can do. So, take a moment to dream with us – beyond just fixing your kids.

Amazingly, this isn’t just your dream: It’s your kid’s dream, too!

Even if it doesn't seem like it, our research with 3,000 kids found that every child, preteen and teen wanted to be close to their parents – but they didn’t know how to get there. And, we’ll let you into another secret: it’s these internal desires that will be the greatest tools for change when you learn to lead with love.

I’m Jeff Schadt, Author of One Rule Home

I’ve been in your shoes: My daughter wasn’t even 9, but she was struggling – and the books and podcasts I looked to for answers didn’t help one bit. So, I spent 20 years conducting qualitative research with over 3,000 kids (and earned a Master's degree to boot) just to crack the code.

What I discovered was absolutely profound, and it changed everything with my nine-year-old and my three other kids!

Jeff Schadt Founder, Author and Senior Coach

Jeff started seeking answers in 2005, resulting in authoring five books based upon his research with thousands of kids. This led to holding hundreds of seminars for parents. At these events parents saw Jeff’s love for kids and parents leading to them pleading with him to help their struggling kids. Soon Jeff was seeing kids facing issues as serious as rage, suicidal thoughts and self-harm turn around in as little as 6 months. He loves helping kids more than anything, but found that helping parents was vital to seeing kids thrive, succeed and make good decisions today and in their future. He used everything he teaches with his own kids first and saw amazing results. Jeff is positive and caring as he helps parents adopt counterculture methods that cause kids to want to follow and listen to their parents rather than have to or else! Jeff has served as the Vice President, President or CEO of three different companies and possesses a masters degree in leadership.

Meet Coach

Heston Glenn Family and Healing Coach

Heston and his wife Celeste had been seeking answers for almost 10 years when they found Jeff Schadt. Facing issues with their own kids, including symptoms of depression, anxiety, OCD, ODD and precursors to self-harm, they were desperate. In mere months working with Jeff in Leading with Love coaching delivered their family from all this and so much more. Six months into their journey, Jeff saw Heston's skills and background in business consulting and psychology, along with the changes they were seeing in their home with their own kids, and invited them to be trained as One Rule Home coaches. Given the years of searching for answers and the shocking changes they were seeing with their kids they accepted completing training to become Leading with Love coach. Jeff, Heston and Celeste talk almost daily about the kids and families they are helping. Heston and Celeste’s kindness and care are noted by everyone they work with. Heston wanted to have the relationship with his kids that he hadn’t been able to have as a kid, but he didn’t know how to be a good dad. He vacillated between being highly relational and highly rules focused confusing his children.

Celeste Glenn Coach-in-Training

When Celeste, along with her husband Heston, found One Rule Home, she was desperate for transformative solutions to the growing number of issues she faced with her own kids, including symptoms of depression, anxiety, OCD, ODD and precursors to self-harm. She battled with feeling like a failure as a mom and couldn’t see a way out. With the Leading with Love coaching, Celeste saw great improvements in her connection with each of her 5 kids, as well as being equipped to handle the underlying issues that were causing her kids to fall apart. Today, her oldest is developing healthy hobbies and facing school with much more confidence.  Her other 4 kids are improving in making healthy friendships, setting goals, and are overall happier with life. Celeste continues to navigate the ins-and-outs of shepherding her own 5 kids (from ages 4 to 14 in 2024), but now with the evidence that conflict can be resolved successfully, and that she has significant influence on their choices and hearts.

Jeff saw Celeste’s heart and desire to help other parents experience what she had and invited her to be trained as a One Rule Home coach. Given the years of searching for answers and the shocking changes she was seeing with her kids, she accepted training to become Leading with Love coach. Jeff, Heston and Celeste talk almost daily about the kids and families they are helping. Celeste’s kindness and care are noted by everyone she works with.

Lives Changed

What if the frustrations you’re dealing with aren’t your fault?

What if our problems with our kids are actually due to a faulty approach to parenting that has been around so long that we can’t even question it anymore?  

Consider this: While science, education, medicine, nutrition….. just about everything has made radical advancements over the last 200 hundred years, parenting advice and approaches have only made minor shifts!  

Jeff and Media Who am I

I’m a dad who had a struggling nine-year-old daughter. I found that the things I was reading and listening to were not working.  So I spent 20 years conducting qualitative research with over 3,000 kids to crack the code!  What I found changed everything with my nine year old who was defensive, argumentative, and would not admit anything without a lengthy battle. Even better, it worked with all four of my very different kids.

On this journey, I secured a master’s in Leadership as well as theology, and parents call me “the kid whisperer.” Get to know me better by listening to my interviews.

What if there actually is a better way to parent your child? A way that targets the roots underneath, draws them closer to you, gets them to open up, and motivates them to change on their own? What if there was a way to parent that actually led to genuine change?

The Answer

On this journey, I discovered what’s really causing our kid’s bad behavior, and it’s not what we have been taught to believe: their attitude, defiance, disrespect, or temptations.

It’s much deeper than these things.

Below our kid’s frustrating behaviors, there are roots that must be addressed for lasting change to occur. Today a majority of parenting experts tell us to “chop the top off the weed” (the bad behavior and decisions we see) with pressure, expectations, lectures, boundaries, or consequences. What happens when we do? Conflict!

And often the weed comes back. We may gain compliance, but at what cost? Peace, our close connection with our kids, and the true influence we had in our kid’s lives.

Why as parents have we not been told or taught to address the roots below our kid’s frustrating behavior, motivation issues, and struggles?

This is where we can help.

Schedule a call and you will receive ‘What’s Really Causing My Kids Bad Behavior?’ free.  

Read the first two chapters now to see why scheduling a call and getting this book will help you understand what’s going on beneath the surface with your kid, and how to create lasting change in your kid’s life.

Learning how to get below the surface with your kid and target the roots makes such a difference!
