LIVE Q&A SERIES // How can we teach kids to make good choices? It's actually our super power tool...

When mistakes are judged, shamed and connected to child’s worth + belonging (conditional teaching): ✔️Kids learn to feel shame when they naturally struggle ✔️Kids learn that conflict is binary: good/bad, right/wrong ✔️Kids hold in their feelings + needs out of fear of shame ✔️Kids are more likely to lie, blame, + defend to feel safe When mistakes neutrally explored and NOT connected to child’s worth + belonging (unconditional teaching): ✨Kids learn to feel safe when they struggle and grow ✨Kids learn that conflict can be a safe place to learn ✨Kids learn their + others’ needs + feelings matter ✨Kids are more likely to communicate, empathize + innovate Gah! We’re all trying to give ourselves grace, patience and love for all the “messing up” we’re doing as adults + parents. ✨Can we try to extend those same things to our kids as they learn and grow, too? Rather than instinctually repeating the inherited phrasing that was passed down to us from generations before, we give you permission to lean into your kids’ learning moments with the very skills you hope to teach them: curiosity, empathy, humor + innovation — a concerted effort to focus on the NEEDS vs the BEHAVIORS.
