Emotionally Intelligent Parenting with Stephanie Pinto

103: When Your Child Sees or Hears Explicit Content: How We Explained Inappropriate Content using Emotional Intelligence.


Listen Later

Today we share a real-life moment when our child heard SUPER inappropriate language online. We talk about how we responded, how we used emotional intelligence to stay connected, and how to set boundaries without shame. If you're navigating tricky online influences with your kids, this is a must-listen.


Ever had one of those blindsiding parenting moments where your child’s world collides with the internet’s wilder side, right in your living room?


In this episode, my husband (yep, he’s back!) and I unpack last night’s heart-pounding scene: an innocent game, a friend’s shock-value words no ten-year-old should hear, and the split-second choice between clamping down or leaning in.


We walk you through the raw, real-time conversation we had with our kids, how we drew a firm new boundary without losing trust, and why emotional intelligence (not punishment) turned a potential meltdown into a masterclass in connection.


You’ll hear two perspectives (one mum, one dad, two different upbringings) and leave with practical scripts, nervous-system-savvy tips, and a fresh lens on raising kids who come to you, rather than hide from you, when things get messy.


This conversation might just rewrite the way you handle the next “Wait… they said WHAT?!” moment.
