How do you respond when your kid is feeling sad? Will you try to fix things for them? Help them out? It might feel like the right thing to do but you’re sending out a different message than you likely intended.
Seeing your kid struggle with their emotions is hard for many reasons. You want to make them feel better. Sometimes, you might even be running out of empathy because you feel like they ‘should be over it by now’. And it gets especially hard when the behavior looks similar to pre-wilderness behavior, like staying in their room and isolating themselves.
In this episode, we’re going to dive deep into the topic of giving ourselves and others the time to feel hard feelings, and how we can model to our kids that feeling those big feelings is completely fine and normal.
In this episode on how to feel and let your kids feel, we discuss:
- How we often put a time limit on grief or other hard feelings;
- How parents tend to try to control the narrative when they get fearful;
- How do you know if your teen is processing their feelings or not?;
- The importance of context;
- Why we try to control people;
- And much more.
