Memorable Moments:
“Behaviors really do communicate their emotional experiences.”
“We’ve really got to trust our parenting instincts. If it feels like I’m not giving my child enough attention, they might be feeling that way too.”
“If we can get a bit of a picture or an understanding of, ‘What’s the siblings’ experience of what’s happening in the home? What’s their feeling?’ Then we can go, ‘What’s their underlying need?’ And then we can respond and support them in that need.”
“I often like to start with that verbal observation of what I am seeing between the siblings. And then you do the Name it to Tame It.”
“We do want that sibling to feel heard, seen, soothed…But we also want them to be able to hold compassion and empathy for their sibling as well.”
“Rather than…’How do we hit with the discipline or consequential action,” going, ‘what do I want to teach in this moment?'”
“There’s the content of what they’re saying, but what’s actually underneath?”
“You are building a new picture of how your children experience you.”
“A really important focus on how we create that sibling relationship is…that parent-child relationship…When that child who is struggling feels connected to, feels heard and understood by the parent, we’re in a much better place to build the foundations of that positive sibling relationship.”
