    This is probably one of my favorite podcasts I have ever listen to. I have two kids and my 4 year old son is my “tough kid” to the point where I am worried about Kindergarten in September and the topic of meds being brought up at school. There were times when I had to pause this podcast to keep myself from crying because it hit so close to home. I had no idea my parenting strategies were making him feel so isolated and unsafe. That night I used the cues from this podcast and put away my assumptions I thought were correct/true. It completely changed the tone in the family dynamics. My son was literally coming to me and leaning into me because I used the terms I believe you, your feelings are right, I am going to keep you safe. We got through dinner, bath time, and bedtime without the soul draining battles that are our rituals. For me, this podcast changed the course of my relationship with my son. I have a fresh perspective of his “bad kid” status and finally feel like I have some tools to reach him on a level that feels genuine to him. Just really blew my mind. When Dr. Kennedy said “ I think you have a good kid” the waterworks started. Also, the way she is open about her imperfect parenting. Especially the occasional yelling admission was so reassuring that sometimes your best isn’t great but the permission to move on from it… chef’s kiss. Thank you for the lab but especially for this one

      Sending you a big hug. I have a kiddo who it’s taken time too to shift perspective because this is so hard, and dealing with multiple kids, each w their own personalities, is so hard. It’s so helpful to take time to learn, and really reflect on what we can do better. You truly are the leader of your family, and the tone we set can be life changing. Congrats to you for making these shifts.

    15:43 🛡 Boundaries are what we tell someone we will do and they require the other person to do nothing. This clear definition helps in assessing whether a boundary was properly set.
    16:53 🛡 A boundary intervention shouldn't rely on a child's compliance but should involve actions taken by the parent to uphold the boundary, ensuring the parent maintains their role as a leader.
    17:49 🛡 Setting boundaries may lead to uncomfortable situations, but it's essential for maintaining personal needs and roles within relationships, whether with children or in-laws.
    19:09 🧠 Boundaries and empathy are not mutually exclusive in parenting; they are complementary forces that work together.
    22:24 💡 When considering rewarding kids, it's important to evaluate the balance of rewards, punishments, and incentives within the framework of boundaries and empathy.
    24:14 📚 Questioning the traditional approach to rewards and punishments in parenting, Dr. Becky Kennedy advocates for understanding the underlying assumptions and seeking better long-term strategies.
    28:12 🏡 Kids inherently desire purpose and meaningful contribution within their family unit, which can be fostered through understanding and collaboration rather than solely relying on rewards or bribes.
    31:27 🧠 Recognizing and respecting children's inherent desires and feelings is crucial, balancing the need for guidance with allowing space for their individual preferences and autonomy.
    36:35 🔄 The concept of "impingement" involves navigating the balance between encouraging children to expand their comfort zones while respecting their inherent desires and boundaries, which is a nuanced aspect of parenting.
    37:33 🏡 Dr. Becky Kennedy suggests using "family jobs" as a framework for parenting, defining roles like setting boundaries and validating children's experiences.
    38:42 🤝 Acknowledging and validating children's feelings without letting those feelings dictate decisions helps build their confidence and self-trust.
    39:52 🛌 Offering support and understanding to children while encouraging them to face uncomfortable situations helps them develop resilience and coping skills.
    40:49 💡 Balancing between not letting children's feelings dictate decisions and respecting boundaries is crucial for effective parenting.
    45:08 🧠 Saying "I believe you" to someone acknowledges their reality and fosters a sense of being heard, which is essential for building confidence and trust.
    48:58 🤗 Validating children's emotions by saying "I believe you" instead of dismissing or minimizing their experiences helps them feel understood and supported.
    51:30 🤝 Beginning conversations with "I'm so glad you're talking to me about this" and "I believe you" creates an open and supportive environment in various relationships, fostering trust and understanding.
    56:02 🛠 Kids often blame themselves or doubt themselves after being yelled at, leading to difficulties in regulating emotions and trusting themselves.
    57:53 💡 Repairing relationships with children starts with repairing with oneself as a parent, separating behavior from identity.
    58:49 🗣 Apologizing to children should focus on genuine remorse without placing blame or expecting forgiveness, fostering trust and safety.
    01:00:12 🔄 Simple yet potent phrases like "I believe you" are crucial for stress modulation and navigating parenting challenges in real-time.
    01:02:15 🧠 Building emotional regulation skills in children requires consistent practice and simulations, not just reacting in the moment.
    01:10:29 🤐 Sometimes, doing nothing in response to rudeness or outbursts can be more effective than engaging in a ping-pong match of words.
    01:11:41 🤝 Validating children's feelings while setting boundaries helps them understand and manage their emotions in healthier ways.
    01:12:49 🔒 Parents should balance between setting boundaries and fostering safety, avoiding being controlled by fear while ensuring children feel secure.
    01:14:27 🛑 Parents should avoid corporal punishment, as it can lead to fear and intimidation in children, hindering the development of a healthy parent-child relationship.
    01:15:24 🚸 Children, especially deeply feeling kids, may express intense emotions like tantrums and aggression due to their inability to regulate feelings effectively.
    01:17:27 📈 The concept of "deeply feeling kids" resonates with many parents and individuals, indicating a growing awareness of children who experience emotions intensely.
    01:19:36 🎬 Parents of deeply feeling kids can establish boundaries by communicating clearly and consistently, ensuring safety while validating their children's emotions.
    01:22:59 🌟 Deeply feeling kids may demonstrate heightened sensitivity to sensory stimuli, affecting various aspects of their lives and interactions.
    01:25:31 💔 Deeply feeling kids may struggle with feelings of shame and abandonment, making it challenging for them to express vulnerability and receive love.
    01:27:59 🔍 There's a growing recognition of deeply feeling kids, potentially associated with factors like neurodivergence and environmental stimuli, impacting their emotional experiences.
    01:29:37 🎭 Many successful performers likely fall into the category of deeply feeling individuals, as their art often evokes intense emotions and connections with audiences.
    01:32:07 🕒 Dr. Becky Kennedy doesn't believe in timeouts or punishment for children, considering them ineffective and unhelpful.
    01:33:55 📞 Prioritizing understanding the child's experience over blaming the other parent is crucial in co-parenting, focusing on communication and collaboration.
    01:39:15 🤝 Working with, rather than against, children fosters successful communication and problem-solving, emphasizing teamwork and understanding.
    01:41:48 📱 Dr. Becky emphasizes the importance of teaching children to tolerate frustration amidst today's instant gratification culture, critical for learning and resilience.
    01:47:49 🎨 Encouraging children to embrace the learning space by tolerating frustration builds resilience and self-belief, essential for long-term success.
    01:49:40 🧠 Understanding the neuroscience of resilience reveals the importance of doing hard things, which translates to success in various endeavors.
    01:51:46 🧒🏽 It's crucial for parents to recognize that they haven't "messed up" their kids forever, acknowledging the challenges of parenting and advocating for available resources.
    01:54:49 🚗 Emphasizing the metaphor of emotions as passengers in a car helps children understand that feelings shouldn't take over the driver's seat.
    01:55:32 💡 Encouraging children to reflect on their successes helps reinforce positive behavior and builds resilience.
    01:59:27 🤔 Teaching children to recognize and label a wide range of emotions fosters emotional intelligence and resilience.
    02:02:20 👩‍👧‍👦 Understanding the developmental needs of adolescents includes acknowledging their need for independence, identity formation, and continued connection with parents.
    02:07:41 🔄 Childhood attachment circuits persist into adulthood, influencing relationships.
    02:09:23 🚸 Children's exploratory behavior is tethered by periodic checks for parental presence.
    02:10:31 💬 Remind children of unconditional love regardless of behavior, without condoning negative actions.
    02:12:08 🤝 Approach teen relationships by seeking understanding rather than judgment.
    02:13:16 📋 Family meetings can be beneficial for problem-solving and fostering understanding.
    02:14:39 💡 In ongoing conflicts, involve children in problem-solving to empower and build trust.
    02:15:18 🏠 Parents' self-care and boundaries are essential for healthy family dynamics.
    02:17:53 🔥 Parental rage often stems from unmet personal needs, highlighting the importance of self-care.
    02:19:45 🌱 Children learn about adult relationships through parental behavior and communication.
    02:22:17 🚨 Recognize signs of distress in teens and intervene when their behavior affects overall functioning.
    02:26:11 💡 Seeking additional help for family issues is a sign of strength and what's right with a family, not just an indication of problems.
    02:26:54 💬 Parents should maintain boundaries and enforce necessary interventions for their child's well-being, even if it means overcoming resistance or objections.
    02:28:43 🌱 Adolescence is a crucial period where parents need to transition from being the pilot to empowering their teens to take control of their lives gradually.
    02:31:16 🌟 It's healthy for children to have various sources of positive influence and guidance beyond their parents, which contributes to their overall development.
    02:38:35 ⚠ Entitlement often stems from a deep fear of frustration, where individuals expect immediate gratification and struggle to tolerate discomfort or setbacks.
    02:41:24 🔀 Balancing gratitude with healthy entitlement requires parents to provide experiences that include frustration and challenges, regardless of financial means.
    02:43:26 🛒 Teach kids life lessons by involving them in everyday tasks and errands, showing them that sometimes they have to do things they don't want to do.
    02:45:31 💰 Consider your goals when deciding whether to pay kids for chores; focus on teaching responsibility and the value of contributing to the household.
    02:47:37 🌱 Dr. Becky Kennedy emphasizes translating deep thoughts into practical strategies, aiming to provide actionable tools for parents and kids to improve their relationships.

    I grew up in a poor sub-rural area in China, neither of my parents went to high schools, but one thing I still remember that they keep telling me was “I believe you”, I believe that you are going to make the right decision, I believe that you are going to do your best to the situation, I believe that you’ll make the better use of the time, resource, relationship, so on and so forth. I remember growing up feeling really trusted and to the extend that I don’t wanna ruin the trust and belief, when I can possibly make a naughty decision or decide to skip a class. Now with this episode, I know just how critical those 3 words mean. I feel immensely grateful to my parents.

      *Seriously though, since you are re-listening to this once a month, may I suggest actually taking notes, selecting only one actionable piece of advice that you can put into practice over the next 3 weeks and creating a visual cue to remind you to use it. Yes, there are many great things in this episode but just pick one. The one thing you feel may have the biggest impact. Then feel free to add an additional piece of advice from this episode after the previous piece has become habit. In other words, obey the cue, only bite off what you can chew, and make progress.*

It has brought some AMAZING actionable tools to improve my relationship with myself and other (hopefully I'd be able to implement them) and with such love and clarity. I don't have kids and don't know if i will ever be equipped to do that, but I now think I was (and probably still am) a 'deeply feeling kid'... trying to heal, understand and support myself.

      All of her interventions are based on attachment theory and emotion regulation. The idea that the parts/emotions/behaviors which we shame in our children are the same parts of themselves they will battle with in adulthood. They are the same parts of ourselves that will either dominate us or that we'll fear. Being "whole" is what a parent offers when they show up for a child who is seeking autonomy or connection. The explorer/nomad metaphor is great. Children without a "master nervous system" ie a "calm enough" parent will "fragment", meaning there will be parts of themselves in adulthood that they won't have access to. The "not me" parts of self. The little children who live inside all of us and had to adapt to our environment to "survive". The past is never dead, it's not even past. Unless we "resolve" our childhood memories and befriend the parts of self we had to abandon to "get along", we will seek those parts out in others. Oops rant over.

It’s like “oh, my parents did a poor job parenting me…because they didn’t know better. I get to learn these skills now and do better.” She talks about kids not having the “skills” to do something , and it’s the same for us as parents, except that she is so graciously teaching us the skills.

    I can’t express how excited my husband and I are to listen to this. I had been wanting an episode on pregnancy and/or parenting as soon as I found out we are expecting our baby. I already followed Dr. Kennedy and had her book in my Amazon cart, and so having a podcast episode with her is exactly what we needed. More on parenting please!

    This podcast brings up a ot of questions for me. It's amazing how different generations can learn to consider the affects of having an argument with your spouse or yelling at your child.. I grew up in the 80's and I guess I was used to my mom yelling, a lot. I think I learned that unfortunately. I need to consider how my yelling affects my kids, especially my 10 year old. I think it's from the lack of clarity Dr. Becky talks about and knowing how to be a "sturdy" parent. Learning how to set boundaries for my kids and the most important thing that I struggle with is following through.

    Wow. Wow. Wow. I loved this so much. I became a mom at 16 and aside from the fact that I was so young I knew all the basics but as the years have gone by I have learned so much not only from books I read while pregnant but also from people like Dr. Kennedy. It’s reassuring to know that I am on the right track and even greater to learn more from this podcast. This is so insightful now as my daughter is a teen and for any future children that I may conceive. I loved the way it was well put. This parenting job is very impactful to the world as our children will be the future. Thank you for this! Loved this episode and Love Dr. Huberman.

    I believe you! How many times I hoped for some kind of assurance like that. How powerful are those words. I have been listening to this episode in chapters because I have to stop crying and process all the emotions inside me. I want to thank you Dr. Becky, for such clarity, and for confirming all I thought was right and never had the opportunity to discuss with someone. I had this feeling of abandonment from an early age. Total helplessness. Grew up with trust and self confidence issues. Thought I was invisible. And I used my broken self to do the opposite with my child. The purpose is to make him know - a truly, deeply ingrained knowledge - that he exists and is safe. Period. I never had this clarity but I can look back and see that my efforts with him were always in that direction. And now you gave me clarity - and the tools - to keep doing this job with him and hopefully with the little hurt girl that still lives inside me. So thank you, truly.

    I'm a parent to two boys who, I believe, after listening to this, are deeply feeling kids. My youngest moreso. I have been worried that he is on the ASD spectrum even though his pediatrician is not concerned. This was so validating and eye opening to me and quite honestly I had to pause this several times to either sit and process what was just said, or cry. I've been invalidating my kids for fear of them not fitting in or being different, as a reflection of myself and my parenting. I instantly purchased her book after this episode. Thank you for the eye opening and, I hope, life changing content.

  • @dsandwich12
    @dsandwich12 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I recently read 'Happiest Toddler on the Block' and my biggest takeaways: give yourself and your kids hand check marks(or equivalent) for any great things you do during the day. The marks will remind you or your kids throughout the day of positive things you did then reflect on them at bedtime and also find positive things for tomorrow to look forward to.
    Let your child win on things that don't really matter or you know you'll lose on(like what shoes shirt or food or any number of choices). Confident kids will cooperate.
    This is touched on in this pod. Connect with respect. Get on their level, mirror some of their emotions with gestures and voice before offering any of your opinions. Don't "elbow" feelings away: criticize, compare, rush to fix, and tell them how to feel. Use their "language".

    The 1 thing that I learned and this episode confirmed is that at the very least at some point we need to see that even though we might not have kids, we have the responsibility to at least learn to parent/coach ourselves in a healthy manner. A community is built up of individuals and if we are at least mature enough to learn and take accountability and responsibility for our own growth, we along with those around us will benefit. A win win for everyone 😊

    Loved this conversation, especially Dr Kennedy’s thoughts on ‘Deeply Feeling Kids’. I am very familiar with Dr Elaine Aron’s concept of Highly Sensitive People, but the way Dr Kennedy explained HSP children was so helpful. I identify as an HSP mom, with two HSP children, one of whom absolutely pushes me away when I empathise with them. All of the typical positive parenting advice just doesn’t seem to work with them, and now I understand why. Thank you 🙏🏻

    This is fantastic. I will add one note about “not knowing of people or groups who believe children are inherently evil” - as someone who used to be involved very closely with more Bible-literalist sects of Christianity, they (and I believed at one point too, and throughout my childhood believed) that children’s (and everyone’s) hearts are inherently evil and we cannot even know it ourselves. This was taught as fairly normal throughout my experience.
    I wouldnt be surprised at all if millions held this belief. Not to say they don’t truly love and care for their children, I know so many who do. But there is still this religious backdrop of the inherent evil of the human and child’s heart.
    I write this with no hatred toward anyone who thinks this way, it’s just a reality I observed for much of my life and something to be aware of.

    • @Zoomo2697
      @Zoomo2697 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      A child cannot know good from evil before the age of reason, usually age 7 and above we start to comprehend
      'right and wrong'
      "Given the sin of impiety through which they [the Romans] sinned against the divine nature [by idolatry], the punishment that led them to sin against their own nature followed.... I say, therefore, that since they changed into lies [by idolatry] the truth about God, He brought them to ignominious passions, that is, to sins against nature; not that God led them to evil, but only that he abandoned them to evil." St. Thomas Aquinas.
      'There are more temptations in life to do good than there are to do bad' Fulton J Sheen
      However we as humans from 'original Sin' are not inherently good!
      "Natural inclinations are present in things from God, who moves all things. So it is impossible for the natural inclinations of a species to be toward evil in itself. But there is in all perfect animals a natural inclination toward carnal union. Therefore it is impossible for carnal union to be evil in itself."
      St. Thomas Aquinas

    In my household, we had Rules. I laid out the rule as well as the reason for the rule. The reason for the rule was something reasonable, not just "because I said so" or "because mom has triggers." Then we had Rule-Rules which were critically important that would never be broken for any reason. And the reason for the rule-rule was given at the time it was established. The benefit of being a single mom was that they did not have a second adult making conflicting rules or breaking the rules that were agreed upon. Each day, the girls had 3 chances to break the rules. I would keep count. If they got to three, they would know by the time they reached 3, they would know the consequences. They were not held in contempt for the rules they may have broke that earned them a one or a two. But a 3 got them the consequence (such as losing privilege, a toy or something they were looking forward to, or going to bed early). The girls rarely got to 3, and they woke up each day in a forgiven status. I know the strategy worked because my daughter told me about a time that her school announced a new rule about not wearing hats at school. While all the other kids were outraged and complained, my daughter automatically considered the reasons for the rule and was ok with it, because the reasons were valid.

    Watching this brough up a memory, my parents would make me write sentencesas punishment because I was “such a bad kid” I excelled at school, would come home and I don’t even remember where things would go wrong. But looking back it’s what made me resent my mother more. She was already emotionally unintelligent. I’d lost respect towards her because all she did was buy stuff. She didn’t take care of the house. We moved a few times and hoarded stuff, I tried to help her because I knew this wasn’t how a person lived. Our house was always chaos. Had my mother been strong, had my mother wanted to actually raise me, because time and time again did she speak of how she wished she didn’t meet my father but another man in her younger years. She had a son, and he went to live with my gma her mom. He grew up with so many problems as I grew up. And it always was there wasn’t a strong person in our lives. I haven’t been able to find it in me to get past the toxicity my mother brought. And still, hasn’t changed. I choose to be strong. I choose to continually better myself.

    @Memore18 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    She has good tips. The boundary empathy and validation are great. The thing that I have a saying abt is when do you allow the kid to be accountable for their actions? It almost sounds like she is saying kids are never wrong but rather feeling things and therefore we should excuse them. Don’t get me wrong kids are awesome. But as we all know all decisions have a consequences either positive or negative. But I do believe that this whole feelings thing can actually cause a weak minded/ insecure individual in the long run. We live in a world that is not sunbeams and rainbows, so raising kids with a little bit of a thick skin is not going to hurt. You don’t want to raise kids that are always all abt their feelings and emotions because in the real world things don’t work that way. When that kid is older and get stop by cops the cops aren’t going to ask were you feeling frustrated is that the reason why you are speeding lol tell me how you feel what made you go fast? I think showing kids morality rather than what they feel and let them dictate their action is way different, you want kids to be grounded, kind but also a bit of stoic, because it’s not always going to be about their feelings.

    • @colminator10
      @colminator10 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I really felt the same way throughout the whole podcast. So many things made sense, but I kept coming back to the no consequences thing. You're right. The real world has consequences, and it doesn't care about how or why you did a thing. It is super important to understand how and why your kids did something, but I don't think that should negate the consequences. Ensuring your boundaries are clearly stated and that consequences for exceeding those boundaries are actioned on makes sense and demonstrates sturdy leadership. I think that openly talking about consequences for our actions and owning our mistakes is important too. I feel like saying "I acted out because I didn't have the skills" is an excuse and stops kids from being responsible for their own actions. My approach would be " you messed up, you paid the price, let's talk about how we can build skills to avoid this in the future". Idk. We will probably be better parents than 90% of the people out there.

    I tried to do this technique yesterday with my daughter who wanted to stay over my mother in laws house with her cousin and play. I said I know that really hard I can understand you wanting to stay and have fun with you cousin. I told her but I can't let you stay here and if you don't leave I'll have to carry you out to the car. She was fighting getting into the car seat. I reiterated empathy but told her I was not going to let her stay but still fought the car seat. I am not gonna be physical with my kid and fight her into the car seat and have her fight me back. It feels wrong. So what do I do then. If you don't let me put you in the car seat then I am gonna do what...? So all I had left in my toolbox was punishment and so I failed. Like sometimes this isn't so black and white. Easy just do this. It's not applicable all the time.

      Just because you tried this new technique does not mean suddenly going to magically work…
      It all requires reinforcement and repetition.
      When the kid things your weak, and suddenly one day decide to show power. They know it’s fake.
      Cuz you been a certain way ( I.e weak) for the last 3-4-5-6 years…
      And what,!’ Suddenly in one day it all changes?
      Nope… they won’t believe that.
      They need to experience it and feel it

      @@Ari-zp4dd I have done some form of this for while now so I wouldnt say it's all to different than my traditional parenting style. I think its a little brash to be calling any parenting besides this weak. I would say even with consistency it has situations in which it fails. You are making it seem as if I am consistent that one day my child will magically no longer throw fits but I dont think in this case cause children's brains are not fully developed. There are going to be situations just like I said "where the parent is required to do something to set a boundary" would require the parent to be physical in way that is not healthy or there are no options that a parent can be an active participant in changing. Even if it is the final result that my child will be angel all the time if I am consistent what do I do with these occasions in the meantime.

      It can happen that this will not always work. What i do in that case is stay with the child for as long as it takes for them to calm down, without getting physical. Like taking him from the setting and if he fights back getting in the seat, then just stay in the car or by the car with him. Very often it helps to not be very verbal, maybe saying "i can see this is very hard now and you are upset, i understand and i'll be here with you" and be present and give them space to live their emotions. Then allow at least 2mins (on average the emotional wave takes 90seconds to pass) for them to be as they wish. They will calm quite out of a sudden

    Yes! Andrew Huberman I agree, “Wow!” I want to share this with my faculty with the parents of our school. Not only was the guest articulate, but Dr. Huberman your line of questioning ,your follow up ,just led this conversation in a complete, precise and extraordinarily helpful picture of parent, child relations, teacher, child relations, “I’m a person, you’re a person“. Appreciate you sir, great work!

    I have become a very big fan. I was bullied off of a comedy podcast reddit and decided I didn’t want to associate with or promote a community that would behave in such a way. Since then I have been listening to this podcast and have learned so much about how and why I exist in the manner I do. I have quit drinking, smoking cigarettes, and reassessed my entire relationship with the outside world for the first time since the pandemic. I am so grateful and try to turn as many as possible to this podcast and more importantly the information and studies contained within.

    Why can't we recognize that so many of those "sensitive" kids were just in the autistic spectrum? Everything you said about it, I can recognize in my autistic self and my autistic kid. The sounds. The feelings. The smells. Everything.

    I thought this podcast was about science. This was a three hour discussion on this ladys opinion. She said "I feel or I think", way to many times. If Huberman had actual integrity he would have called her out on her opinion statements.

    I like a lot of what was said here; thank you for this. I also feel like this is exhausting... to everyone who wants to be a better parent, first be a better person. When you have a clear understanding of your existence you'll be able to treat your children like they're part of your life team. If you don't do that, it will always be a struggle for you.
    1 - Show them and let them do anything they're capable off - give appreciation.
    2 - When they're out of line ask them if they'd like it if you did/treated them that way then reinforce the positive truth... So simple guys. IF you want to go one step further.
    3 - Remind them of things of value daily, encourage and show gratitude daily. Done. Enjoy your life, you matter too.

    I wasn’t gonna listen to it as I am like I am a good parent. Then today I still open this while driving to pick up my kid. I am like OMG, this is exactly what I want to know and learn now! Not for my parenting, but for my practicum children! And I am happy it also mentioned about ADHD, neurodivergent kids. This is just so helpful! I also feel I want to cry for some of the parts, and I found out I am not alone! It’s just fantastic!❤

    This is my all time favorite episode, Andrew -- and that's saying something because I have a long list of top favorites including Lisa Feldman Barrett and Peter Attia. I have been a huge fan of Dr. Becky Kennedy for more than a year and I recommend her workshops, books and Instagram reels to every parent and grandparent I know. I am using her tools and knowledge with my four grandkids....and have found her insights to be invaluable "reparenting" tools for the mentoring and coaching I do with people of all ages engaged in self discovery, personal growth and healing from childhood trauma. A big thank you for showcasing Dr. Becky and the importance of a revolutionary new parenting model that will have positive impacts for generations to come.

    I needed this. Thank you!! So validating on so many levels and REAL advice with reasoning. Dr. Becky isn’t letting highly sensitive kids hijack family experiences and she’s explaining things with such cleared eyed compassion holding onto what will create a cohesive family AND foster a way for these kids to become good humans. Something many of us are in fear of NOT happening. Thank you!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
