Today, we go back to an episode from Season 1 of the show that can be particularly helpful in the throes of Spring parenting.
Lets face it…sometimes our kids' behavior is perplexing.
We have no idea why they are doing what they are doing. We have no idea how to make them stop and we can walk away feeling confused, defeated and even like a failure.
We have behavioral expectations and if we're not careful we can allow our children's behavior to determine whether we see ourselves as a good parent or not. We can measure our success by their behavior…
Why do we do that? How do we get to the root of what's ACTUALLY happening?
Glad you asked - tune in today to hear how we look to see the needs being expressed behind the behavior and meet those needs to build trust and attachment.
In this episode we reference several fantastic books (you should buy them all immediately): The Whole Brain Child, and Beyond Behaviors
