Why do some children become emotionally distant, anxious, or constantly dysregulated despite “good parenting”? In this episode, Aakanksha Chitnis Gupte explores the hidden difference between fear-based parenting and connected parenting, how parental stress and unresolved childhood patterns shape the parent-child relationship, and why emotional safety matters more than control. A powerful conversation for parents raising neurodivergent children with more awareness, connection, and compassion.
