Unpunished: Understanding Your Parenting...

MICHELLE KENNEY, M. ED
About this episode

As parents, we often encounter difficulties when our children bring up unresolved emotions and behaviors from our own upbringing. It is essential to be aware of these emotions and reprogram our natural parenting instincts so that we can respond with love, kindness, and understanding instead of anger and punishment. Today, I would like to share an excerpt from my book, "Unpunished," along with some useful journaling prompts that can help us explore our own history and emotions as parents. By doing so, we can gain a deeper understanding of our reactions to our children's behavior and improve our parenting skills.
