With twin seven-year-old boys, Jane Dowden, known online as Mum and a Mic, is no stranger to negotiating with her children.

Whether it's sitting on the bottom step trying to convince a child to put on their smart shoes instead of green dinosaur crocs or trying to get children to eat their vegetables at dinner time, it can be a very stressful experience.

So, how can we avoid this and make life a little bit easier? Jane joined Hayley Hassall on 91¸£ÀûÉç Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour to discuss her experiences and the advice she has for other parents.

You can listen to the full special programme about women and negotiation on 91¸£ÀûÉç Sounds – it's the Woman’s Hour episode from 1 January.
