in the case of the unsolved problem of difficulty brushing teeth, the best time to have a Plan B discussion with your child is before she’s faced with the task of brushing her teeth, rather than in the heat of the moment. If the unsolved problem is difficulty completing math homework, the time to have a Plan B discussion is before the next time your child is struggling with her math homework. Since you’ve already decided which high-priority unsolved problems you’re working on, you should be using Proactive Plan B the vast majority of the time.
