Parents, like anyone, feel angry when they are lie Parents, like anyone, feel angry when they are lied to. It’s common for parents to feel agitated, disrespected, and even hurt when their children lie to them. In this quick tip episode we discuss why kids lie, how parents can respond to lies and how to prevent lies. There are various reasons kids may lie. Some of the more obvious reasons include, to get something they want, avoid consequences, to get out of something they don’t want to do. But there are also less obvious reasons kids lie. @drbeckyatgoodinside says that children lie to their parents to protect their connection with their parents. According to attachment theory, children are tuned to pay attention to what keeps their parents close and what pushes them away. If kids believe that if they tell the truth in certain scenarios, their parents will react with anger, judgement, and punishment which pushes them away. But if they think their parents would react to the truth with wanting to know more information and understanding behind a bad decision or behavior, kids will be more likely to tell the truth. So if you want your kids to feel safe enough to be honest with you, them telling the truth must bring about more connection than distance between you. ⭐️For the full episode, visit parents.com or click the link in our bio! #parenting #dad #mom #parentingtips #parents

Research tells us that to raise a self-reliant chi Research tells us that to raise a self-reliant child with high self-esteem, it is more effective to be authoritative than authoritarian. You want your child to listen, respect and trust you rather than fear you. You want to be supportive, but not a hovering, helicopter parent. All of these things are easy to set as goals, but hard to achieve. How do you find the right balance? As your child develops, the challenges will change, and your thinking may evolve, but your approach should be consistent, firm and loving. Help your child learn through experience that making an effort builds confidence and helps you learn to tackle challenges. Calibrate your expectations about what your child is capable of doing independently, whether you have an infant learning to sleep through the night, a toddler helping to put toys away, or an older child resolving conflicts. Remember, there is no one right way to raise a child. Do your best, trust yourself and enjoy the company of the small person in your life. Source: @nytimes

You might feel helpless thinking about how to comf You might feel helpless thinking about how to comfort a woman in labor, but it is an important role. Research shows that continuous support during childbirth can have positive benefits for both the mother and the baby. Support might even improve the outcome and reduce the length of labor. It’s best to be prepared for the time you’re going to spend in the delivery room. You don’t want to end up trying to cater to your growling stomach or distended bladder as the laboring mom is finally ready to start pushing. Come prepared with snacks, drinks, extra clothes, and any other necessities you might want so you won’t need to leave the delivery room. Entering the delivery room uninformed can be just as bad as being unprepared. Be able to answer common questions about the childbirth experience as it pertains to the person you’re supporting. What are the stages of labor? Does the laboring woman you are attending to want anesthesia? What is their doctor’s name? Does she have a birthing plan? Your job, as the support person, is to have all this information on hand. You should also have the phone numbers of important family and friends at your fingertips. Source: https://www.instagram.com/verywell/ You do not want to undermine the laboring mother’s preferences, but she might need you to advocate for her. You can do this by knowing what she wants, then finding out how you can make it happen. Make sure her wishes are heard.
