Small acts of connection and validation can go a long way! 🤗

A child’s behavior is often a reflection of how full (or empty) their emotional cup feels.
Connection, validation, and encouragement go a long way. 💛 🥤
Filling their cup doesn’t take big moments, just small, consistent ones.
The way we listen, validate, and connect becomes their inner voice.

“Children do better when they feel understood, not controlled.” 🙏

“Children do better when they feel understood, not controlled.” 🙏

Some children are not ignoring you. They just cannot respond in that moment.

They might be deeply focused on what they are doing. They might not have processed what you said yet. They might feel overwhelmed, tired, or unsure what you actually mean. And sometimes, the more we repeat instructions, the less children really hear them.

What looks like “not listening” is often a child struggling with attention, understanding, or emotions.

When adults shift from repeating, raising their voice, or assuming defiance, and instead slow down, connect, and give clear, simple guidance, behaviour often changes.

Children do better when they feel understood, not controlled.

If this is something you see at home or in your setting, you are not alone.

Our Story

Life has always been challenging. Relationships, parenting, work/life balance. But now we’re also dealing with complex issues created by technology and climate change. When you look at the big picture, and how drastically life has changed in such a short time, it’s not surprising that we’re experiencing an unprecedented mental health crisis.

In Canada, 1 in 5 people have a mental illness, su***de is the second leading cause of death for children and teens, and each week 500,000 employees miss work due to mental illness. Something needs to change right now. That's where we come in.

FamilySparks is a for-profit, social impact company. We're disrupting the mental health space by providing clinically-based solutions that meaningfully change lives. Our core program is our social impact-focused Employee Assistance Program - EAP+. This program enables employers to provide high quality mental health care for their employees and families, with 75% of users saying their mental health is better because of our program. In addition to EAP+, we offer a slate of specialized mental health services, including Crisis Management, Mental Wellness First Aid, Resilience Training and more. At the core of FamilySparks is CEO & Founder Dr. Jillian Roberts, a child psychologist, a professor and a mother of 3. She is the author of two best-selling and award-winning series of children’s books that explain tough topics to kids: “Just Enough” for children ages 3-6 and “The World Around Us” for ages 5-8. She is also the author of “Kids, S*x & Screens: Raising Strong, Resilient Children in the S*xualized Digital Age” for the parents of preteens.
