Expert advice: Learn form the experts
โThe Conscious Parent" by Dr. Shefali Tsabary, as discussed in the podcast, advocates for a parenting approach that prioritizes connection and understanding over control and punishment.
Key learning:
Become self-aware: Recognize their own emotional triggers and how their past experiences influence their parenting. ๐งโโ๏ธโจ
Connect with their children: Build strong, loving relationships based on empathy and understanding. โค๏ธโ๐ฉน๐ค
Empower their children: Encourage independence, self-reliance, and emotional intelligence. ๐ช๐ง

๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ Inspiring stories: Stories with Examples
The Unlikely Hero: Jane Goodallโค๏ธ
Scenario: Imagine your child is having a tantrum because they can't have a cookie before dinner. They're stomping their feet, yelling, and refusing to listen. You're feeling frustrated and want to yell back, but you remember the story of Jane Goodall.๐ฆ

โInstead of reacting with anger when your child has a tantrum, take a page from Jane Goodall's book. Observe and understand their emotions โ are they hungry, tired, or frustrated? โ
Challenge the assumption that they're simply being "bad"; children have complex emotions and needs just like adults. Persevere with patience by calmly connecting with them and actively listening to their concerns. ๐
Nelson Mandela: A Champion of Freedomโ๐พ
Scenario: Let's say your child is having a disagreement with their sibling over a toy. Tempers are flaring, and it looks like a full-blown argument is about to erupt.

Applying Mandela's Legacy:
Recognize the Injustice: Just like Mandela recognized the injustice of apartheid, acknowledge that your children are experiencing a sense of unfairness and frustration.โ๏ธ
Focus on Peaceful Resolution: Instead of immediately jumping in to punish or mediate, encourage your children to try and find a solution themselves. Remind them that anger and yelling won't solve the problem.๐ก
Emphasize Empathy and Understanding: Encourage each child to try and understand the other's perspective. "How do you think your brother/sister is feeling right now?" or "What do you think would make them feel better?"๐
