As parents, our natural instinct is to shield our children from stress. Life's hard enough as adults, so we want to let kids be carefree.

But is that strategy counterproductive and actually harmful to our children?

Today, Dr. Emily Edlynn calls for a cultural shift towards balanced, autonomy-supportive parenting that prioritizes both child and parental well-being over societal pressures and external achievements.

Parental fear and reactive behavior often stem from concerns about safety or our own emotional overwhelm, making it challenging to respond thoughtfully to our child's emotions.

Today, Mr. Chazz, a former Montessori teacher turned multi-faceted educator, shares his insights on recognizing and embracing emotions as a pathway to better emotional regulation for both parents and children.

If you're looking to manage emotional triggers, promote self-regulation, and foster a more harmonious parent-child relationship, be sure to tune in!
