When you think about what a kid needs to move through this world, as parents, we can get stuck on the stuff - the diapers, a car seat, supplies for school, dentist appointments. But when we put the stuff aside, we are left with the emotional child. The person.
As parents, we get to be in the thick of it from day one. All the guts and glory of tantrums, heart ache, and celebrations.
Regardless if we want it to be this way, we impact our children’s core beliefs about themselves and how they interact with this world. We can be intentional in building up those beliefs, or we can flippant.
Today along with my co-host Caity Mehl, we’re going to go through the 6 basic needs of children that influence how these core beliefs develop.
