Well that backfired!
When we parent out of fear, our short-sighted reactions can add fuel to the fire. This can create unintended consequences, like MORE helplessness, MORE sibling resentment, and MORE attention-seeking.
In this episode, I cover where this starts, two extremely common examples, and what to do instead.
IN THIS EPISODE I SHARED:
- The Boomerang Effect: What you push away, comes back full force
- A parallel to the movie- Monsters, Inc.
- The "Veruca Salt" mentality we're all afraid of
DON'T MISS:
- How the best of intentions can actually create MORE entitlement or sibling rivalry
