  1. watching this not as a parent but as someone's kid who probably needs some healing from wrong parenting that i don't know about. im a ball of anxiety and my coping mechanism is avoidance so i think i need this

  2. Sorry but I think u are not very sure about what u discuss and u are not giving any solutions…really waste my one hour listening and u should self reflect and do better next time

  3. Against all the advice, I have never punished or yelled at my kid. It just didn't make sense to me – instead I created a connection with her. I knew that yelling and punishment would just make a kid feel unheard/angry/defiant, not create real change. She's 13 now and just a great kid.

  4. For parents of gen alpha kids I have noticed that these kids are more independent, brave, and less ‘controllable’ than any other generation. At first I was thrown by this because it is so different than how I was as a kid but then I started to see the beautiful future that they will be shaping and it all made sense. The world needs them to help fix and corse correct not to follow the path that has led us to where we are. We need to empower our gen alpha to be the leaders that they are and encourage their revolutionary ways! This can look like chaos when they are three and four but in time the fruits of these shift in perspective has helped my children shine and thrive. It wasn’t them that had to change to make it happen but my perspective. Hope this helps someone ❤❤❤

  5. As a mama with 3 kids 6 and under, this episode is so helpful ❤ I knew alot of it, but since no.3 has arrived I absolutely needed these reminders!

  6. The best thing my parents did for me was tell me no to a lot of things. I'm very resilient in that way and I'm extremely resourceful, too. Also, I'm so grateful for grandparents who were connected and vulnerable. It made all the difference and now hearing Dr Becky talk about this, the MAJOR message they gave was "I believe you" and "I see all of you and love you the same."

  7. Though there are parental instincts, it is enhanced by family or community… even when I was a child, I still knew when to feed my baby niece, knew how to wash and change nappies… because it was passed down. But as a father, I did what my parents didn't, hug more, explain things, rather than follow what I say… but you need to have the on-site and practical experience… theory is great for a Doctor l, who hasn't applied, but unless you actually have experienced or have children, this is all talk

  8. Resilience is not the goal for children. It’s the bare minimum. The real goal is antifragility, which is the ability to develop in response to the challenges of life. Resilience is simply withstanding difficulties, antifragility is about growing from them.

  9. I think people need to read Jean Liedloff's book The Continuum Concept before the woman even gets pregnant. Like she says evolution is the teacher, makes complete sense.

  10. I freaking love this. Thank you. I'm 6 mo ths pregnant with my first child. Soaking it all up and hoping to apply these skills and to have grace for myself when I forget. ❤🙏 Thankful for all the parents who are trying to change and shift old programming ✨️

  11. There are so many parenting style trends, but it boils down to the basic things…our job is to love them no matter what, prepare them to one day be happy, confident, self sufficient adults who arnt prey to bad people who want to take advantage of them and in the meantime protect them while they are learning. I feel like most parenting models lack in one area but not her. Her advice works bc it comes from love, common sense & from a child's eyes.

  12. This sounds very much like Dr Gordon Neufeld’s Attachment Based Developmental Approach run through the Neufeld Institute in Vancouver. If it is based on his work it would be great to hear him credited. Fantastic to hear someone with a platform spreading that it is all about our emotions especially the vulnerable ones!
