Hear me out....If I were in charge of giving out superpowers for parents, especially parents of kids with a history of trauma, I'd give you x-ray vision.

Attachment research is clear about the power of x-ray vision (except they call is reflective functioning and mentalizing).  It is a powerful ingredient of secure attachment.

In today's episode we will explore what kinds of things x-ray vision would tell us about our children and their behaviors and why it matters.

It matters.  A lot.  Seeing through behaviors to what's underneath is one of the most important skills you could have as a parent!

Since I'm not in charge of hanging out superpowers (yet) we'll have to settle for continued blogs, podcasts, and courses that help you put on your own x-ray vision goggles to see what's underneath your child's behaviors!
