Today’s question is probably one of the core causes of stress in young families; ‘How to manage the household mess!’

In the episode, Dr. Koh explores… how to make cleaning into a game.

How to compromise some of our standards so we can cohabit more peacefully.

Finding our own special space where we can have ‘cleanliness control’.

And supporting each other through the relentless task of tidying a home.

It’s a known fact - hobbies make life happier!

So, whether it's music, sports, arts, or otherwise, of course, we want our kids to find passions that fuel their creativity and enjoyment.

However, when what should be ‘fun’ starts to feel like ‘work’, and our kids no longer want to practice or pursue a hobby, when do we push them to stick with it and when do we allow them to throw in the towel?

Join our guest Dr. Christine Koh for her insights on When It Is Kind To Let Kids Quit - and when is it NOT!

In this episode, we’re talking about chores.

Why do kids need them? What are fair expectations?

Do we pay our kids for help around the house?

We’re back with our keynote guest, Dr. Christine Koh. She’s describing how chores build our child’s life skills, and how to work together as partners and parents without making chores a chore!

Join us for this practical episode!

When we feel we’re being left out, it’s tough.

When we feel our kids are being left out, it’s terrible!

This week, parenting specialist and author of Peaceful Discipline, Sarah Moore addresses a question about how to help our children when they don’t seem to be settled into the social realities of school - especially if they're not being invited to playdates and birthday parties. Join us!

Is there a correlation between a highly sensitive temperament and mental health concerns?

Today, our guest Sarah Moore answers a question from a parent who is wondering about the intensity of her son’s emotions. She sees his emotional highs, but notices, even more, his lows and wants to know if she should be concerned.

Sarah is the director of Dandelion Seeds Positive Parenting and the author of her wonderful and newly released book, Peaceful Discipline

Highly sensitive kids feel the intensity of their emotions. Their highs tend to be higher and their lows tend to be lower.

This week, our guest Sarah Moore answers a question from a listener who asks, “How do you support a highly sensitive child when you feel like you have to walk on eggshells?”

Join us for her compassionate and insightful response.

‘High Sensitivity’ is a temperament trait, meaning it’s biologically based rather than learned or taught.

A highly sensitive child is a child who is very affected and often reactive to environmental influences - sounds, smells, temperatures, and even the attitudes and moods of those around them.

In this episode of family360, author and parenting specialist Sarah Moore shares the unique emotional language of a highly sensitive child and what they need from their parents in order to feel seen, loved, and validated.

Child experts agree that commenting on our daughter’s appearance may suggest we value her looks over other qualities and this inadvertently damages her self-esteem and sense of worth.

In this 3rd Q-note episode with Maggie Dent, Maggie delves into her own past problems with ‘prettiness’ and shares her well-seasoned perspectives on helping girls find their inner beauty.
