Resilience

MICHELLE KENNEY, M. ED
About this episode

How do we promote resilience in our child and use the tenets of Peace and Parenting? Does being a kind loving parent mean our children will not be able to handle the cruel world? Perhaps empathy and kindness is exactly what allows our children to build in self esteem and the ability to recover from hard things. 

Episode Highlights:

  • Why you should let your child win
  • Listening to your child with empathy
  • How to promote resilience
  • The ways in which peaceful parenting protects our kids from shame.

Check out the Shame and Winning episodes and learn why our kids need us most when they appear to be at their worst.
