This might do the trick. Try to approach calmly and practically and not head on. Connect with your kid. Give your kid options and not directives. For example, instead of telling them to go to bed, ask them if they would want to read bedtime story A or B. Help your kid understand the need to do something or behave in a specific manner. Have consistent rules and do not be lax for your convenience. Seek cooperation. Empathize with them - never dismiss their feelings or ideas. Say what you mean and do what you say. Use statements like "let's do this!" or "how about we try that". Engage your kid in fun activities.
