The Playful Psychologist

Why We Need to Drop the 'SHY' Label


Listen Later

In this week's episode of The Playful Psychologist Podcast, I am joined by Sarah Bolitho from Secure Foundations.  Sarah is a Master's qualified Child & Family Play Therapist and a mother of three. In this episode, we explore the negative impact labelling children can have. We focus heavily of the negative connotations associated with labelling a child as 'SHY.' We explore why it's time to drop the 'shy' label, give you some ideas of how to respond if someone calls your child shy, and how to reframe 'shy' behaviour more positively.

Sarah is a wealth of parenting knowledge. You can follow her on socials at @securefoundations or check out her website and incredible parenting 'POP Club' here: https://www.securefoundations.com.au/
