Underparenting is Essential

Sometimes it seems as if one or more of our kids doesn't have feelings, or is okay with anything. As if they are so easy in nature that nothing bothers them. Maybe that is true to some degree. Perhaps they are more easygoing personalities, but what if those feelings are there and just need a place to come out and space to be seen and heard?

Agreeable Kids Have Feelings Too

Strong-willed kids are often sensitive, like my sweet Esme. These kids will make parenting using conventional ideas very challenging. Good for them to push back against the ideas of control and manipulation. Their internal workings tell them these tactics are attacks on their psyche. The problem is they come out fighting and then the circle of behavior begins with little hope of getting it to stop except through connection. Let's dive in and see just exactly how we can help these lovely beings.

Strong-Willed, Highly Sensitive Kids

The feelings our children display can be difficult for us to endure. However, when we do with calm, we show them we are safe and able to be their container. As life moves on we are cementing this idea. When things are hard where will they come? But only if we can illustrate we are actually safe.

Being the Safe Container for Your Child

Often we say our child is upset when they “don’t get their own way” but is it that simple and are they “allowed to have feelings around disappointment? Aren’t we upset when things don’t go our own way? Isn’t it true we feel disappointed or defeated? Just because they are little doesn’t mean they aren’t “allowed” to have those feelings too.

How to Respond to Disappointments

Connective parenting is for all kids because it draws from the ideas of unconditional love and relationship instead of rewards and punishments. All children and all people thrive with connection and do not do well with punishment, belittlement, or harshness. Who wants to be treated in these ways and what does this type of treatment do to a child's brain? Find out all the answers in this week's podcast.

Why Is Connective Parenting for All Kids

Do we actually believe we aren’t good enough parents because we weren’t good enough kids?  Were our mistakes punished and pointed out in order to make us feel bad and do we feel bad now when we mess up, chastise ourselves and hold ourselves to unattainable standards like the ones our parents held us to? I believe this could be a big part of the parent shaming cycle that never ends but continues outside of our childhood. Let’s reframe this idea.

Do We Believe We Aren’t Good Enough Parents

The brain functions well with connection and is at ease when they feel good about the people that are around. Especially children and babies. The limbic system looks to connect with other limbic systems in order to feel safe. Our children are constantly looking to make connections in order to establish a deep connection with a caretaker to ensure they are taken care of. They are provided shelter, sustenance, and protection. Maintaining connections for children is vital to their existence. Listen to this week's episode as Michelle more deeply explains.

Connection Is Vital in Parenting

This realization of being a bully didn’t come to Michelle early on in parenting, but as she reflects she now sees her behavior as a young mom resembled that of bullying. The yelling, threats, bribes, and shame aren’t something any child should have to live with, and really no person. Do we want to show up in our loving relationships in this way or would we rather come to them with love and understanding? It can be hard when society and often our own families are telling us otherwise.

I Was My Daughter’s First Bully

There are some things that we can keep top of mind when we are thinking about being a connected parent. Michelle gives you a short list to help outline just what it means to be a connected parent and how we can reframe our thoughts and minds to stay on our path of coming with unconditional love and guidance as opposed to being the judge and jury.

Anxiety Around Parenthood with Guest Sheryl Paul

Are we wired to fix things with our kids and perhaps with our partners as well? Does this place us in a position to miss the feelings which might be mulling around and go straight to this idea that we cannot allow our loved ones to suffer, as it might be too difficult for us? Dr. Tracy D collaborates on a joint podcast where she and Michelle discuss how these ideas show up both in our partnerships and our parenting.

A Daily Reset

Let’s be honest parenting is really hard and sometimes impossible. This week I keep it real with you and tell you all the things that have me stumped. It doesn’t mean I love my kids less, but it does mean that I struggle just like you, and to be honest there are days I want to run away. There are days I wish they were grown and there are days when it is more challenging than I ever imagined.

Let’s Be Honest… Parenting Is Hard

There's much discussion about regulation. How do I get my child to self-regulate? How do I get them to learn about their emotions and learn emotional regulation? Can I teach it to them and what is the best way? Many folks want to explain and teach breathing techniques and ways to name their feelings. But co-regulation is where it's really at. Co-regulation is where kids really internalize the idea of maintaining their cool.

Co-Regulation vs Self-Regulation

Respect is something society tells us our children "need" to have for us. Kids are expected to respect their elders and "be" respectful. Much of the respect I see is respect that is forced and not the kind that is earned. My children need to earn my respect and me theirs. We live in a reciprocal relationship that is based on mutual respect. Isn't that what we want in our other loving relationships? Why would this one be any different?

Respect…How Do We Get It

Yep, I said it, and I believe it. Punishment is revenge in a very real way. We don’t punish children for any other reason except we want them to “pay” for what they did. It’s not our fault, as our parents did the same thing. If we look at our own childhood we can remember what it felt like and how punitive and unkind it came across. Is this what we want for our kids?

Is Punishment Revenge

How do we teach our children gratitude? Is it through direct instruction or lessons on being grateful? Do we point out all the things in their lives that they should be grateful for, or make them regurgitate things they are grateful for at the Thanksgiving Table? What is being grateful anyway and how do we show our children we are grateful for them? Have a listen and maybe gain a different perspective.

Instilling Gratitude

I’m sorry might not be enough! It may not convey the real message that we both want to express when we feel remorse and we want our children to also express when they feel true remorse. Let me help you cultivate a more dynamic and heartfelt apology that feels better and is undoubtedly more helpful.

The New Apology: Making Amends

Many sweet parents ask me if it’s too late for them and their children. If they have damaged the relationship so much that it is irreparable. Let me reassure you today that it is not! Life is messy and full of mistakes and that is what makes it all a human experience.
