If I asked any parent if they love their kid unconditionally they are more than likely going to say yes, but how do we show our kids this? Because it's a very different feeling coming from the child's side of things. We can tell them this over and over with our words but kids make this assessment based on how we act and more importantly react to them. Today I want to help you with some thoughts about showing our kids unconditional love.

Have you at any time thought to yourself what is wrong with my parenting? Why are my kids so good with other people but with me, they throw tantrums, yell, scream, and disobey? It’s not because you’re doing something wrong it’s because you’re doing something right. You are likely their default parent which means you’re their only safe place to go when they need to unload their big feelings, but of course, this can become overwhelming. Today I give you some great advice to help you if you find yourself as the default parent.

When I say discipline, most of us immediately go to a vision of punishing our kids when they do something wrong, like confiscating something or time outs. For some, it can even mean physical punishments like spanking. That’s because we have a very traditional sense of the word discipline.

I don’t use any of these traditional forms of discipline on my kids, that's because they are watching every move I make and will inevitably do the same when I’m not around. We have to give our kids credit for knowing what’s right and wrong and instead, try to model the behavior which we want them to embody.

Today I want to talk about parenting from fear. As parents, we all want to protect our children from experiencing the hardships and pain we went through as children. However, in doing so, are we unintentionally hindering their growth and development? By examining where we are fearful in our parenting, we can recognize areas where we may need to let go and trust our children to make their own mistakes and learn from them.

Society has set us up that a harsh word or a harsh tone is how we fix bad behavior. But if one child is receiving harshness because their behavior is difficult and hard to manage, we have to be mindful that everyone is watching and it is going to affect all of the relationships in the house.

From a young age, the education system teaches us (and our kids) that grades are the metrics for assessing if they are doing well but this can put a lot of pressure on them. I have decided instead to give my kids responsibility for their own grades instead of constantly harping on them to get good grades. I want to help them focus on learning the material and understanding why they're struggling if they're having a hard time.

Working with individuals and couples is my most favorite work. We dive deeply into the ideas of connection and unravel the struggles of each individual family I work with. It’s a transformational paradigm shift each and every time. I have seen families undergo huge changes that forever impact their relationships. My One on One programs have limited space, so if you're interested click here to find out more. I look forward to working with you.

On the 200th episode, I reflect on a significant lesson I've learned: being my child's best friend doesn't eliminate conflict. I used to put immense pressure on myself to be perfect, but I've since realized that connected parenting is built on unconditional acceptance, not back-and-forth games. It's okay to make mistakes as a parent, and building a strong connection with our children is what truly matters. Thanks for joining me on this journey!

Stick around at the end for a special 200th episode giveaway.

I believe every child needs to be a good decision-maker, but they can't become good decision-makers if they don’t have decisions to make. While giving advice may seem like good parenting, I think it actually hinders children's ability to learn from their mistakes. Instead, I suggest we listen to our little ones first and use some probing questions to help them make their own decisions. With the right approach, children can learn to help themselves and bounce back from their failures with ease.
