Growing Happy Families
Episode 2: Start with Strengths - Not Weakness!
As adults and parents/carers, when things aren't going as happily or as successfully as we want, we may well feel like we are failing at the most important task of our lives - bringing up our young ones.
When we think we are failing, we might well focus on the 'bad stuff' - those failings - and start beating ourselves up for being bad parents and that makes for a hard time.
In this episode, Kim and Mairi are talking about turning things around and looking for the strengths we have and what actions we are taking so that we can begin to encourage ourselves first and foremost and nurture our courage and resilience. That way, we can keep motivated and optimistic about the future.
If our children are misbehaving, they are feeling discouraged. We have to have a stable, courageous outlook ourselves if we want to help our young ones to learn responsibility, independence and the qualities and skills needed to be a good human.
