We all have blind spots. If you want to be a better parent (and human) learn to receive feedback from your kids (and others).

Then I would say “you’re right. I’m sorry. Thank you for letting me know it’s not ok to speak to you like that. Would you like to do a reset?” A “reset” can be a hug, quick breathing exercise or even something silly. It depends on the child and situation.

This is a little excerpt from my book….

Finding Your Calm: Responsive Parents Guide to Self-Regulation and Co-Regulation
�This book combines my knowledge of child development, brain science and trauma to offer parents a unique resource that includes lots of exercises, reflections, insights and also… links to additional research, articles and videos that can help support your healing and learning journey.

Grief doesn’t move in neat stages. It can show up in the present (your day-to-day life), reach back into the past (memories, regrets, longing), and hit you in the future (milestones, fears, what will never be). And sometimes it all shows up at once.

If you’ve been thinking, “I should be further along,” this is your reminder: you’re not doing grief wrong. You’re experiencing how big grief really is.

Save this for the days you need the reminder.

DARVO; Deflect, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender.
They cause drama, chaos and pain, and will always find somebody or something to scapegoat.

We’re often quick to accept these things in adults.

That they have off days.
That they don’t always feel like talking.
That they have preferences, limits, and a say in what happens to them.

We don’t question it.
We recognise it as normal.

But somewhere along the way,
we expect children to override all of that.

To comply.
To push through.
To accept what they’re given without question.

And when they don’t,
it’s labelled as behavior that needs correcting.

But valuing a child’s humanity
isn’t the same as indulging them

It’s recognising that they’re a person —
with feelings, preferences, and boundaries —
even when it’s inconvenient for us.

That’s not spoiling them. That’s respect. ❤️
