Here is what to expect on this week’s show:Aaron emphasizes the significance of a parenting approach with strong boundaries, influenced by his parents' progressive attitudes with stern, traditional discipline and expectations. He credits his mom and stepdad for instilling in him the value of setting strong boundaries while supporting and uplifting children. This approach reflects a modern understanding that focuses on empowering children while maintaining clear guidelines and expectations. Aaron advocates for parents to acknowledge past parenting approaches, embrace radical change, and commit to making necessary adjustments for a better future. He emphasizes the importance of parents doing their inner work, healing past wounds, and being present for their children in a way that meets their needs.Neurodiversity Informed Coaching focuses on understanding behaviors as symptoms of underlying struggles, teaching parents coaching skills to support their children. By recognizing that behaviors are often solutions to unmet needs like safety, power, connection, freedom, and worth, parents can approach their children's actions with empathy. Parenting strategies involve understanding the reasons for a child's behavior and avoiding emotional reactions. By analyzing the why behind a child's actions, parents can address root causes rather than just reacting. Aaron stresses the significance of expressing love and support, emphasizing that the love we withhold is the pain we carry, affecting not only ourselves but also our children and relationships. By creating a space for open communication, understanding, and empathy, individuals can navigate the challenges of parenting and relationships with compassion and resilience.Links Mentioned:Website: www.parentingteensthatstruggle.comBook The Four Prime Archetypes: Why We Do What We Do: https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0CSWRLF74/?tag=im0ea3-20Get your FREE copy of 12 Key Coaching Tools https://impactparents.com/gift Connect with Impact Parents:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/impactparents/ @impactparentsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ImpactParent@impactparentLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/impactparents/@impactparentsX (fkaTwitter): https://twitter.com/ImpactParents@impactparentsLearn more about your ad choices.
