@rootsandwingschildhood ・・・ Here are the TOP 5 QUESTIONS I receive about parent coaching. Sharing them for you here in case you were wondering too.⁣ ⁣ 𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐧?⁣ No, I work with parents who have children of all ages- toddlers to teenagers. The most common stages for parents to reach out are probably 3, 7, 13 because there is a very natural developmental pulling away process that happens and parents are rightfully confused and looking to equip themselves when their child pushes back or shows behaviour that feels triggering. The strategy, mindset and tools I use in my coaching practice transfer easily between ages and stages. I’m always customizing my recommendations based on each unique family and consider many factors including age. Temperament and personality and the dynamics of your family are a much bigger factor than age. ⁣ ⁣ 𝗪𝐡𝐲 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐈 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠? 𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐈 𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐨.⁣ It’s true that parent coaching is still very new. I like to tell parents I am the person to go to between the classroom teacher and the psychologist. Teachers are overburdened and 99% of the time we can make huge progress without pathologizing a child. ⁣ ⁣ 𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐦𝐲 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐦𝐲 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞?⁣ Not at all. I really believe that parenting is an inside job. We are all just walking around parenting ourselves. Children are mirrors of their environment so when parents are open to doing the work within themselves, shifts happen very quickly. Continued in comments
