#306: The Anger Episode

Erin Royer, MA Clinical Psychology, Child Development Specialist
About this episode

Anger in parenting often feels so loaded & unacceptable. But every emotion has a purpose. Learning how to accept them, hear the message they are sending and then use them for the positive is what emotional competence is all about. In this episode I cover how we can learn to accept, tune in, process and use our anger as a parent for positive introspection, growth and as a catalyst to getting needs met that we may be ignoring. This also help us become better equipped to lead and guide our kids in working with their own anger and its messages.
