Peace and Parenting: How to Parent without Punishments

Case Study: I Hated Being Around My Kids


Listen Later

Have you ever felt at your wit's end, not wanting to spend another minute in the presence of your kids? Today, I have a heartwarming conversation with Rachel, a mother who once felt overwhelmed and disconnected from her two young daughters. Rachel bravely shares her initial struggles with her eldest child, who exhibited extreme emotions and behaviors that left Rachel feeling helpless and frustrated. 


Rachel’s journey of growth and understanding demonstrates that with the right tools and support, every parent can move from mere survival to thriving with their children.


In This Episode

  • Rachel's initial challenges with emotional shut-down
  • Validating your children’s feelings over dismissing them
  • The impact of parenting support on family life
  • The softer, more connected child after change
  • How the sibling relationship transformed with a new approach
  • Challenges and successes in ongoing cooperative parenting
