002 - Our child are worst with us
Notes
In this episode of "Parenting the Intensity," we dive deep into the challenges that parents face when their children exhibit intense emotions. From meltdowns to outbursts, our children sometimes struggle to express their feelings in a healthy and controlled manner. This episode explores why our kids may seem to be at their worst with us.
We start by examining the dynamics of parent-child relationships and how children often feel safer expressing their intense emotions with their parents. This can lead to frequent meltdowns when we're around, but it doesn't mean we're doing anything wrong as parents. In fact, it's a sign that our children trust us enough to let their guard down.
The discussion also touches on the distinction between children's behaviors at home and in other environments like school or with grandparents. It's not that our children are better behaved elsewhere, but rather that they feel safest at home, allowing them to fully express their emotions.
Join us on "Parenting the Intensity" as we unravel the complexities of raising emotionally intense children and explore ways to provide them with the understanding and support they need.
