Hey people! We’re back!
Let’s meet on Monday 10.30-11.30 for some #parenting chat.

[Medical Families @MedicalFamilies]

@katiefhurley Not just for teens 🙃
Applies to everyone!

[Katie Hurley @katiefhurley]

Something I find myself saying to teens on repeat right now: you are not defined by your problems. Your problems are things you have to work through, but they don’t define you. You get to grow and change and find your way, even when the obstacles feel big.

[Medical Families @MedicalFamilies]

One book mentioned was “The Hidden Chimp” @chimpparadox to help kids understand their emotional brain 🧠 or the adult version “The chimp paradox”

[Medical Families @MedicalFamilies]

Really enjoyed our session today discussing acknowledging feelings again. Also talked about acknowledging our own feelings and knowing when we’re in the right place to interact with kids.
It’s back to “oxygen masks on the carer first!”
@VineyRebecca #positiveparenting

[Medical Families @MedicalFamilies]

Also re-emphasized that all feelings are allowed. But certain behaviors/actions must be limited.
“Yes, I see you’re angry. It is still not ok to kick your sister/call her names/make her sad.”
Sounds familiar?!

Once again, it’s nigh on impossible to parent properly when you’re not in the right place yourself.
