113: The Parenting Translator. With Dr. ...

Jeanne-Marie Paynel, M. Ed.
About this episode

Would you like to have a translator to make sense of all the parenting advice out there? Listen in to find out what some of the research is saying.

The information we have access to can be overwhelming at times. How can we really process it all? My guest today does just that, she translates it all for us.

What We Talked About:
  • Finding reliable science-backed  resources for parents

  • Did the global Pandemic affect our children’s cognitive and emotional development

  • How parents can help their children affected  with PTSD 

  • How accommodating our children’s fear is doing them a disservice

  • What the research is saying about screen time for our young children

  • Toilet and sleep training

Things to Remember:

“Parenting is the art of combining multiple sources of information and choosing what is best for your individual child and family.”

“Sometimes research can be misinterpreted.”

“The most effective for anxiety is validating their feelings and pushing them to face their fears and challenge themselves.” 

“We don’t want our children to live a life with absolutely no anxiety. That’s not the real world.” 

“We do know that screen time is correlated with a lot of negative child outcomes."

“High-quality interactions between a child and a caregiver is better for a child’s learning and development than screen time.”

“Parent’s mental health has a huge impact on children’s well-being."

- Dr. Cara Goodwin
