Grief is a natural reaction to emotional loss. In this episode, Grief Recovery Specialist Tammy Adams and Tamsen challenge the idea that grief has no place in motherhood if you have a healthy child.

Research shows that punishing your kids is like dieting - you might see some quick results, but things are sure to get worse in the long run!

Jessica and Tamsen also discuss the slippery slope of wanting your kids to be happy, and the inadvertent damage you can do when you communicate that to your kids. Jessica shows you how to guide your children's emotional development without sending your kids the message that only certain emotions are ok, and that other emotions are too scary to deal with.
