Helping Kids Navigate Big Emotions (While We Struggle Too)
About this episode
Why do we expect kids to "behave," "respect," and "calm down"—while we, as adults, allow ourselves bad days, mood swings, and even moments of disrespect? 🤔 In this episode, Kate and Anne dive into the double standard of emotions and why kids are often punished just for feeling big feelings.
Join us as we explore how to balance discipline with emotional growth, foster empathy over punishment, and support our kids in navigating their emotions—while we’re still figuring out our own. 💙 Plus, we’re breaking down the best tips & tricks for managing emotional outbursts and how to tell the difference between normal kid behavior vs. actual disrespect.
