Welcome back to Parenting Through Connection! In today’s episode, we’re diving into one of the biggest parenting challenges—setting boundaries and dealing with the tidal wave of emotions that often follow. We’ll explore how your attachment style influences the way you hold, or avoid, limits and how you can stay grounded even when your child is falling apart.

Here’s what we explore in this episode:

• Why your child’s meltdown after a boundary isn’t a sign you’re doing it wrong.
• How your attachment patterns from childhood shape your responses to your child’s emotions today.
• The pitfalls of permissive and authoritarian parenting when boundaries are challenged.
• What it looks like to parent from a place of secure attachment, even when emotions run high.
• A simple, compassionate approach to honouring your child's emotions while staying consistent with your boundaries.
