attachment

We all want healthy attachment for our children. 

We want them to feel confident to take on challenges and know that there are loving arms waiting for them after their adventures and challenges.  But that can go a little wrong when our needs muscle in front of theirs. Yet, we can go their whole childhood without knowing we've muddled their needs with ours.

Here is a really clear and concise way to check that you're meeting their need for healthy attachment.

Building Relational Bonds

There's always a clue behind the angst - but have we got time to explore it?

One little micro-change in how you respond to your kids will take you on a trajectory towards good relationship: Where there is understanding there can be empathy - Where there is empathy there is connection.

It's easy when you know how.  The alternative? - missing the vital clues and teaching our kids to keep their feelings to themselves - that causes disconnect!!

Nobody wants that. 

Come and explore...

Boundaries without the Agro!

Last week we looked at WHY we should keep boundaries in place. This week we look at HOW we can do that without raised volume and harsh tone...and how we can stay empowered and teach our children empowerment - not overpowerment!  It's powerful

Why kids get defensive?

Our children are defensive and argumentative when they feel they're in the wrong. Why? Because often, being wrong is not acceptable at home. It equals failure, shame, embarrassment; they liken going wrong to being wrong. Parents can then get into an unhealthy loop of backing down and letting the child win - for a quiet life. But what consequences does that have for the child's self esteem later in life?
