I'm Struggling to Get a Break Because My Child Won’t Play Alone

from We Nurture: Waldorf Inspired Parenting

Welcome back to Unscripted Parent Coaching Sessions With Chinyelu!In this episode, we revisit a mom I coached in the January 21st episode, where she shared how her daughter’s whining and lack of sleep were wearing her down. She begins with an update on what has changed since then before we dive into another challenge she’s facing—her daughter’s struggle with independent play.She longs for more breathing room in her day, but instead, every moment feels like a demand for her attention. Whether it’s wanting to be entertained, needing constant engagement, or refusing to play alone, the weight of being in a constant out-breath is leaving her drained.We explore ways to support her daughter so that she can begin to play more independently.Subscribe to our weekly newsletter, The We Nurture JournalLooking for 1:1 Parenting Support?
