Send us Fan Mail“Why don’t discipline or behavior systems work for my child?” “Why does my child shut down so easily?” “What is trauma-informed parenting, and how can I apply it?” — Parenting is tough, and sometimes it feels like we’re doing it all wrong. Behavior can be difficult to understand, especially in kids with trauma. Today, Sophia Mills and Amina Elsamahy sit down with psychotherapist, parenting coach, and founder of Transformative Parenting: Todd Sarner. Todd shares why traditional discipline systems tend to fail, the impact stress has on children, and the importance of connection to form a firm foundation for emotional growth. He explains that as parents, we don’t need to be perfect; we need to be present. “Your job,” he assures us, “is to be a good guide.” Tune in today to hear practical tips, learn about trauma-informed parenting, and understand more about your child’s behavior. In Part 2, we’ll dive deeper into what it means to be a child’s anchor and learn applicable strategies to build a transformative relationship with our children.💬Get In Touch:Send Us A [email protected]🚨Need More Resources?    👉Visit Our Website    👉Check Out Our Socials: @speakupforkids    👉Are You Local To Palm Beach?
