Rethinking Obedience: Non-Coercion in Early Childhood and Beyond

S1 EP9: Join us as we engage in a thought-provoking discussion on the concept of obedience. Cara and Rythea delve into its definition, highlighting real-life examples of non-coercive parenting drawn from Cara's day-to-day experiences with her toddler. The hosts explore practical ways to implement collaboration with young children, emphasizing its crucial role in fostering trust, connection, play, and discovery.Cara and Rythea, both therapists, explore how our early childhood relational experiences often get reenacted in adulthood and what it takes to interrupt those patterns as parents breaking a cycle. Tune in for a compelling dialogue that challenges main stream notions of obedience and opens doors to a more dynamic and mutually satisfying approach to raising resilient, empathetic, empowered children.--Get in touch with Rythea and Cara, buy our books and watch our content at https://linktr.ee/yourkidsdontsuckFind all our episodes at https://rss.com/podcasts/yourkidsdontsuckIt’s important and essential to put our voices (Rythea and Cara) in a context.
