Bucket Emptying: How to Start Difficult Conversations


Listen Later

If you haven’t yet seen Adolescence on Netflix, what have you been doing?!


Jokes aside, this TV show has been a triggering one for many of us, but especially those parents of boys. It has brought to light many issues around the manosphere, masculinity, and a generation of children who, without a safe space to have open and honest conversations with grownups, can be easily influenced by harmful content elsewhere.


That’s why this week’s bucket emptying episode is all about how to have those difficult conversations with your kids. As the grown up in the room, it is your job to take the reigns with this, and I’m going to help you!


So find a comfy seat, pour yourself a cuppa and enjoy the conversation…



Highlights from this episode:

01:56 - We’re not looking for just one deep conversation

02:56 - Seize natural opportunities

05:07 - Instigate the conversation if needed

08:33 - Don’t confuse silence for an opportunity to keep talking

10:10 - Leave them wanting
