Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about...

 

 

• How do you know when to encourage your child to stick with an activity versus when it’s okay to let them step away?
• Does your approach change if the activity is a team sport versus an individual activity?
• What are effective ways to talk to your partner about these concerns without triggering defensiveness or shutting down the conversation?
• How sibling dynamics along with parental expectations can influence a child’s interests and shape their developing identity.
• A helpful phrase you can use that may reduce some of the pressure and urgency, leading to lessened friction and tension between your partner and child.
