Dr Maryhan’s Childhood Story

How Not to Screw Up Your Kids - A podcast by Dr Maryhan

This is a very personal episode where I share my childhood story. Whilst I have very fond memories of growing up, I never quite felt comfortable or confident in who I was. I am convinced this is why I do what I do, and why I do it the way I do it.  I hope this episode will help you as a parent see things from the viewpoint of a child, and how they experience the world. It’s also a reminder that you cannot judge a book by its cover. Here are the highlights: {4:00} A typical middle child {5:35} Coping with tragedy {10:02} I just had to get on with it {14:55} It's important to understand our child's perspective {18:20} I felt uncomfortable in my own skin {21:13} Where was the support? {24:53} It's crucial to keep talking about emotions {28:46} Trust parental instincts 💚 Let's grow our village together, please share this episode with at least one friend 💚 Complete the listener poll to let me know what you'd like in future episodes💚 You can watch the Bucket Emptying Episodes on Youtube💚 Access the free resources mentioned in the episodes💚 Join our campaign One Million Moments to reduce the number of children struggling with mental health challenges from 17% to 10% by 2025.
