Parenting Insights and Actions
1. Understanding Kids' Behavior:
- Principle: Kids are inherently good; their identity is separate from their behavior.
- Action: Distinguish between the child's identity ("good inside") and their behavior, which can be addressed and corrected without labeling the child as "bad."
2. Effective Communication:
- Principle: A parent's words become a child's inner voice.
- Action: Use affirming language and avoid harsh criticism to foster positive self-talk in children.
3. Raising Resilient Children:
- Principle: Resilience is more valuable than temporary happiness.
- Action: Expose children to challenging scenarios in a supportive context to teach them coping skills and emotional regulation.
4. Dealing with Challenging Behaviors:
- Principle: Understanding the root cause of a child's behavior is key to addressing it effectively.
- Action: Instead of punishing, seek to understand why the child acted out and work on developing the missing skills or coping mechanisms.
5. Setting Boundaries:
- Principle: Boundaries are what we will do, not what we expect others to do.
- Action: Clearly communicate your actions in response to certain behaviors, ensuring the child understands the consequence is a result of their actions, not a punishment.
6. Modeling and Practicing Scenarios:
- Principle: Preparation and practice help children respond better to real-life challenges.
- Action: Role-play challenging scenarios with children, providing them strategies to handle situations effectively (e.g., walking away from taunts).
Personal Growth Insights
1. Healing and Self-Reflection:
- Principle: Healing from past traumas and reflecting on one's behavior are crucial for personal growth.
- Action: Engage in practices that promote self-reflection and healing, such as therapy, mindfulness, and journaling.
2. Building a Good Identity:
- Principle: A strong, positive identity is foundational for healthy behavior and relationships.
- Action: Work on separating your actions from your identity, affirming your inherent worth regardless of mistakes or failures.
3. The Importance of Repair:
- Principle: Repairing relationships after conflicts is essential for growth and connection.
- Action: Actively seek to address and resolve conflicts through open communication and empathy.
4. Embracing Discomfort for Growth:
- Principle: Growth often comes from facing and overcoming discomfort.
- Action: Challenge yourself to step out of your comfort zone in safe and controlled ways to build resilience.
General Actions for Improvement
- Reflect on Your Interactions: Regularly take time to reflect on how you interact with others, especially children, and consider if your actions align with the principles of understanding, resilience, and positive identity building.
- Seek Resources: Look for books, workshops, and other resources that offer insights and practical advice on parenting, personal growth, and emotional regulation.
- Practice Empathy: Make a conscious effort to empathize with others' feelings and perspectives, whether in parenting or personal relationships.
- Cultivate Self-Compassion: Recognize that growth is a process and be kind to yourself as you work on becoming the person or parent you aspire to be.

I see so many issues with the way people are parenting now and even with how schools coddle kids with toxic positivity. I understand why this change happened, they think their parents did it wrong, but we need to remember that our parents did the best they could with zero help, zero advice, & having been raised in a time when kids were very much neglected. Our kids need love, they need to feel they are cared for, but they need leadership and to be taught how to handle hard situations. This was all great information and really goes hand in hand with learning to respond to our kids and not react.

41:41 Feelings have a time and place, and don't always need to be public. I'm glad she didn't call her style gentle, because I perceive that to be weak and generating children with poor emotional regulation. Sturdy = balanced. She is teaching that emotional regulation at home, so they can survive and be a good example for others in public. đ
