Anxiety has a way of demanding ALL of the attention. It shifts the focus to what feels scary, or too big, or impossible, or what needs to be avoided, or what feels bad, or what our kiddos can’t do. As the grown ups who love them, we know they are capable of greatness, even if that greatness is made up of lots of tiny steps, (as great things tend to be).

People don’t have to agree with boundaries for you to execute them. Boundaries are meant to keep you safe. And they are meant to keep you comfortable. Your comfort may make others uncomfortable, and that’s okay.

As awful as conflict feels, especially when it’s with our children, we can’t avoid it - and we don’t want to. We want our children to know that their voices and needs matter, and that they don’t need to silence themselves in order to keep the peace. They’ll learn this with us first, by actually having the collisions and surviving them with strength.

What’s important is that we actively repair our relationship with them after a conflict.

There’s no right way to do this, but it might involve:
- acknowledging our part in the conflict: ‘I’m sorry I yelled. You didn’t deserve that.’
- acknowledging their needs and feelings, and their right to express those needs and feelings, even if we don’t agree with how they did that: ‘I know you know it’s not okay to speak like that. I know how important […] is to you, and that makes sense to me. It’s okay for you to feel disappointed and angry.’
- acknowledging their right to disagree: ‘I love that you know your own mind. It’s okay for us to disagree. I’m going to work on not yelling. Let’s both do that.’

This isn’t about giving a free pass on big behaviour. Talk about what wasn’t okay and what to do differently next time, but we also need to acknowledge the things we might have got wrong. We nurture humility, respect, empathy and kindness in them, by modelling it ourselves.♥️

The quality of your relationships determines your quality of life.

"What do you do if you don't punish for bad behavior?" We teach, reinforce, and practice what they could or should have done differently. Sometimes we do a do-over right in the moment. Sometimes we role play later when everyone is calm. Sometimes we problem-solve to repair a fractured relationship. Sometimes we have a family meeting to reset and start over. But whatever we do, it is restorative and redemptive, not retributive.

So much wisdom here. Connection is so important. ❤ Of course other things "work," but what's your goal? Control or a relationship?

Keep the good, create your own versions of it. Get rid of the bad, the toxic, the unhelpful, the confusing. Some traditions need to be broken, the sooner the better. Start new ones. Start the healing. Break the cycle.
