When your child brings you something that they saw on social media, that maybe they should not have seen...do you immediately have the freak out face? Do you get upset?  Do you take the device away?  Do you take the social media away?  This is fear based parenting.  Our knee jerk reaction is to protect our kids.  This is hard to do online.  So when our kids share something hard with us, we immediately want to remove it to protect them.  In this episode I talk about why that can be harmful, and how we can flip the script to form closer relationships with our children by leading with curiosity and thankfulness. I also give specific responses when faced with various situations.
