Tips to help parents survive the holidays with Dr. Tamara Soles

Perhaps you are looking forward to the holidays or perhaps you are not.  Unwanted comments from family members judging how you are parenting your child, big emotions from your child because they are tired and overwhelmed, and hanging out with that family member that always drinks too much and says uncomfortable comments. (sigh)In today's episode, I chatted with child psychologist  Dr. Tamara Soles (based in Montreal) and asked her all the questions you need answered to help you throughout this holiday season. Here is what we chatted about: How to support your child's big emotions/tantrums during family gatheringsHow to support neurodivergent childrenHow to set boundaries with family members that are racist, sexist or behave inappropriatelyWhat to do when a family member tries to parent your child or judge the way you are parenting them How to navigate the holidays with young kids if you just got divorcedWhat to say to your child when they don't say thank you and do not seem grateful for the gift they received How to support a child with social anxiety during the holidays Watch this episode on YouTube:https://youtu.be/ZvGixGQy5uUYou can follow Dr. Tamara Soles on Instagram @drtamarasolesor reach her/learn from her through her websitehttps://drtamarasoles.comListen to her podcast: This hour has 50 min https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/this-hour-has-50-minutes/id1509389703Please leave a rating for our podcast on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!
