I’m Proud of You Because You Are Mine And I Get To Be Your Parent!

  • There is a difference between being proud of what your child accomplishes and being proud of them for who they are. Both are good but need to be communicated differently.      
  • It is important to tell them how proud you are of them when they do the right thing. This reinforces their actions with your approval. However, if they only hear that you are proud of them when they accomplish something, it sends the wrong message.                                   
  • They also need to hear you are proud of them when they don’t accomplish anything.            
  • When a child hears, “I’m proud of you because you are mine and I get to be your Dad/Mom!” it has a profound impact on their sense of relational security and helps to increase the Safe Space they feel with you.
