Ep. 128: My Child Hates Having their Feelings Validated- Friday Q&A
Why does my child hate having their feelings validated?
In this episode, I talk about the top 5 reasons I see about why kids don’t like their feelings validated:
- It feels too vulnerable
- It feels intrusive
- You’re getting it wrong
- You’re on the watchdog or possum pathway
- They are too far down the watchdog & possum pathway
This is a Friday Q&A episode, where I answer a listener’s question.
