A lot is happening in the U.S. - here’s what you might have missed this week. source


The only person we can really control is ourselves. We can influence the situation, we can hold boundaries but we can't really control our children's behaviour.

Ultimately parents are trying to do their best to help their children grow and develop into "good" people. Unfortunately we have been brought up in a world where punishment has always been the main way to control behaviour. The problem is that if we really want our kids to develop a moral conscience and take responsibility for their actions, punishment simply doesn't work. We need to discipline our kids in the true sense of the word; teach direct and guide them. We need to work with them and not be an authority to cause fear, but someone that will help them develop to the same moral standard we have.

Anxiety is rarely logical so saying what worries them is "silly" or not really an issue is not helpful, it is real to them. Acknowledge that whatever their fear is would make them feel scared. Now this isn't agreeing with the fear, it is validating the emotion. You could say "yes that does sound scary" or "I understand why you feel worried". When a child (or anyone really) feels heard then they will feel safe enough to find a solution with you.

Co-regulating with your child can actually be an opportunity for connection. Through it they can be real with us in a very raw way, and we still show unconditional love. It is an opportunity for closeness. However, if we have been working on building connection, when co-regulation is needed it will work more smoothly because the trust is already there.
Look for opportunities to connect with your child no matter what their age. Let them direct the connection. If they love cricket, art, Thomas the Tank Engine or Dora the explorer or whatever, use that. You can't expect a child to meet you in your world, you have to meet them in theirs. Spend time talking to them about their interests, this shows that you care about them even if you don't share that interest. Have fun together, play games, blow bubbles, have movie nights, toast marshmallows over a fire, even just reading a book together builds that connection. If that connection is their your job to co-regulate will be that much easier. source


How we speak to our children is important. Our words impact how they value themselves. When we listen to them and allow them to make some decisions, they learn how to think through situations and gain confidence.

What others would you add to this list?

PS I know there are 2 "I love spending time with you"

I think this is one of the most difficult things to do as a parent. Sometimes we can say the ‘right’ things, but our tone of voice is saying something very different. But a child will read if they are safe from our facial expression, tone of voice and our body just was much (if not mor) from what we say. If their nervous system doesn’t feel safe, then it can’t calm. That’s why it is so important for us as parents to look after ourselves and practice being regulated (not easy, but important). We need to recognize how we are feeling and do what we need to restore calm.

Of course sometimes your child won't want to be held and don't force it. But if we can stay calm, meet the feeling not the behaviour then co-regulation can happen. When we hold our child there is a physical change. Their nervous system will mirror ours. We just have to wait for the fire to go out.

Co-regulation doesn’t have involve hugging. Some kids won’t calm when held but doesn’t mean that you can’t co-regulate. Being close and calm will still impact your child’s nervous system and eventually calm too. When you label the feeling for your child rather than reacting to the behaviour, they feel heard and understood. When they are ready you can work it out together
