Join me as we tackle the challenges of parenting when values between a parent and child seem worlds apart. In this episode, we explore a mother's struggle with her need for order and calm contrasted with her nine-year-old son's preference for play and silliness. We dive into the importance of understanding children's developmental needs for exploration and noise, and how parents can stretch their perspectives to accommodate these differences. We'll provide insights into bridging the gap between a parent's need for calm and a child's need for fun, helping to foster connection and harmony within the family.
