Ep. #61: Questioning Assumptions

Parenting Your Sensitive Child - A podcast by Julia McGarey

Categories:

We've been having a lot of fun around here over the past few weeks, including unexpected visits from out-of-state friends!One of the things that bubbled up in conversation over the weekend was this idea that we are somehow failing our children. It's fascinating; our brains throw out these critical assumptions, and we just believe them. We believe we must have made a mistake as parents and created a habit in our children that shouldn't be there, or we believe that our children are harboring some sort of negative intentions, and we believe without questioning.This week, I'm inviting you to question. When your brain is telling you that it knows exactly what's going on, question it. What other explanations can you offer? What else might be true? And finally, what explanation is makes the most sense and is the most helpful?***Are you on my email list?
