    Ep 172: The Parent Paradox: Avoid 'Fix-It Mode' for Better Problem-Solving
    Jul 24 2024
    The sense of urgency in parenting often leads to reactive rather than creative problem-solving, posing unique challenges for both parents and children. Elaine and Diane, drawing from their personal experiences and insights, underscore the importance of recognizing and managing the signs of reactivity, such as hypervigilance or catastrophizing. Listen to this Parenting With Impact episode with Elaine and Diane as they discuss problem-solving. Ten Tips for Calm and Confident Parenting of Complex Kids Parenting complex kids can be difficult, even mind-numbing at times. In this FREE Guide you’ll find clear, quick guidance to help you calm the chaos and more confidently prepare your child for greater independence and success! Learn techniques parents all over the world are using to reduce friction and (believe it!) rediscover the joy of parenting. UTM: https://impactparents.pages.ontraport.net/calm-confident-tipsheet?utm_campaign=Podcast&utm_source=episode&utm_medium=cta&utm_content=calm Here is what to expect on this week’s show: Elaine and Diane understand as parents you must recognize when you are in a reactive state and make a conscious effort to shift towards a calmer mindset before addressing the issue at hand. This allows for more thoughtful and effective problem-solving. Practice pausing in interactions with your children to allow for reflection and emotional regulation. This space enables both parents and children to respond thoughtfully rather than react impulsively. Elaine and Diane stress guiding your children through moments of discomfort instead of immediately rescuing them. By helping them navigate challenging emotions, you empower them to develop emotional self-regulation skills for the future.
