Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about...
2:37 - What is a "spicy" kid and how is that a more positive term than "sensitive" or "highly emotional"?
4:05 - What is the difference between continuum and categorical and how does this apply to these highly reactive kids.
4:54 - Helping kids who easily go to feelings of shame while setting limits.
8:32 - Teaching our children the difference between shame and guilt and how this can be a beneficial parenting tool to use with the children that quickly go to a place of shame.
12:08 - Create opportunities for your child to feel a sense of mastery, in control, self-confident, and proud by inviting them to participate in tasks you know they can excel at.
19:31 - Try using the terms "safe" or "unsafe" rather than "good/bad" or "mean/nice" when describing your child's behaviors.
