People pleasing in parenting is costing your children their self-worth, emotional regulation, and healthy boundaries. Kids learn through observation, so if you're a people pleaser, your children are picking up those same behaviors and internalizing them as normal. This is how generational trauma works and how the cycle continues unless you heal it.

How people pleasing affects your children:

• Kids learn interpersonal skills through observation and copy your people pleasing behavior
• You normalize overextending yourself and putting everyone else's needs first constantly
• Toxic family members stay around because you can't set boundaries, exposing kids to potential harm

People pleasing parents struggle with consistent discipline and handling conflict, making parenting inconsistent. This becomes generational trauma that your children inherit.

In my Growing Pains, I recognize how my parents' people pleasing affected me. Now as an adult healing, I understand this is a generational curse I want to break with my future kids.

Subscribe. Share. Remember that your healing is your children's healing and breaking the generational curse starts with you doing the work.

Small steps, big healing. Keep growing! ✨
