30: How to Keep Your Cool When Your Kids Are Annoying You.
from Meant to Bloom: because burnout shouldn't be your baseline · host Brittni Clarkson
The real question here is: How do we stop being so triggered by our kids’ annoying behaviors. When we learn to remain calm and untriggered by our kid’s fits, we can hold our boundaries and stick to a consistent model of parenting. When we give in to the tantrums we teach our kids that if they push us far enough, we’ll give in. Are you ready to take the steps to set the right tone for your family? You’re the gatekeeper, you decide the energy of your home. When someone in the family gets panicked and worked up, are you going to join them or calm them? If you’re going to calm them, you first have to calm yourself. Stay grounded. Stay rooted. Stay chill. Even when the world feels like the walls are closing in. Why do our kids trigger us? We tend to be more triggered when our needs aren’t taken care of. Our kids tend to be more triggering when their needs are not being met. Like a kid acting out because they haven’t had enough bonding time with you lately. Or crying for their favorite snack because they got too hungry and now all that they want is that one thing that they are thinking of and nothing else will make them happy.
