Q&A: Can a child be too young for parents to build their resilience?
from Securely Attached · host Dr. Sarah Bren
Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about... 2:10 - You can build your child's resilience by helping them establish healthy and secure relationships. 5:22 - Understanding the importance of "good enough" parenting for your child's development. 6:19 - What is the goal of parenting in our child's first year? Is there such a thing as a child being too young for you to build up their resilience? 9:22 - The difference between survival and resilience. 12:45 - What emotion regulation looks like developmentally in the first year and how to become attuned to your baby's different cries. 18:10 - Can we turn sadness and pain into ambition - and is that something you can teach a child? 23:01 - If we frame resilience as the ability to trust yourself and believe your feelings are important, the best way to teach that to a young child is to mirror what they are feeling as real and important. ✨We want to hear from you!
