How to Respond to Our Children When We M...

MICHELLE KENNEY, M. ED
About this episode

This week on the podcast I describe how I have tried to make repairs when I have behaved in ways that I know are not acceptable. We are all human and making mistakes is inevitable and also part of how we learn to do better. Modeling effective apologies and making amends is the best way we can teach our children how to take responsibility for their actions. If we can take responsibility for ours they will learn this is the way to interact in the world and this is how we gain and give forgiveness. There are many good lessons in these interactions.

 

Have you ever felt alone in your parenting, as if you were the only one struggling? I know I have been there and finding like-minded individuals has helped me navigate the murky waters of parenting with intention and peace. For this reason, I have created the Peace and Parenting community and beginning January 17th you can be part of our new membership. Each week I will be providing you with parenting strategies. I will host three live Q&A’s every month and supply you with lessons, PDF’s and support materials. It’s only $17 dollars a month during our presale which ends January 24th. Take advantage now by going to peaceandparentingla.com/membership to get all the details. I look forward to seeing you at our first live Q&A.
