Triggered Parents Make Triggered Kids
Episode description
Our biggest fear is that we’re failing our children somehow.”
If you’re worried—because most parents are—this video will help you approach that fear with compassion and clarity.
In this video, you’ll learn:
Real-life “no-one-tells-you” parenting stressors, from biting toddlers to boundary-pushing tweens.
How to spot and rethink your personal triggers by tracing them back to your own childhood.
Practical “reset” tools: what to say to yourself (and your child) when you feel that hot-button reaction.
Healthy parenting concepts for responding with patience, even in your most challenging moments.
Additional Thoughts:
1. If you’re struggling with hitting your children, yes, that causes damage—try to get that issue resolved first.
2. I believe that a child needs at least one engaged and loving parent working on themselves.
3. Repairing is discussed in the webinar - it’s never too late to repair and be real about failings.
4. Amplifying situations such as co-parenting with a toxic person are real issues. Try to just focus on your own parenting. A parenting coach can be very helpful in those situations if available.
5. No parent is perfect, but that cannot be used to self-enable or minimize.
