Episode 208
Many couples who are raising children with big emotions disagree about how to handle children’s behaviors, moods, and attitudes. Often it’s very hard for either parent to consider the other’s point of view because each is so convinced that their own is correct. Interestingly, this “stubbornness” may be related to what both parents learned from their own personal experiences.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How our past can impact our relationship with our spouse or co-parent
- Why we have to recognize that “stubbornness” comes from love and fear
- How we can see things differently if we want to get closer to being on the same page
