There's insecurities that they're carrying around.
In their minds, there is noise.
It is loud.
Kids describe this to me often.
every single day, literally, Debbie.
And so at home, especially as they walk through the door, they need to experience some sense of sanctuary.
There needs to be some peace and some feeling that somebody is there for me unconditionally, no matter how today went, whether I want to talk to them in depth about it or whether I don't want to say a word about it.
I need that time to kind of regroup because there's more I have to do today.
I might have a job to go to.
I have homework to do.
I might have a play practice or swim practice or something else I have to do.
So I need a little bit of a reprieve.
And I think moms and dads more than anybody can be that sanctuary for them.
And now it's so critical because
Kids have precious little time in their lives where it's silent.
They have very little time in their lives where they have the luxury of a little bit of regression.
So I'm talking about kids as young as seven or eight or nine or 10 being aware of everything that's going on in the world, all their insecurities internally.
So everything external and internal, they're kind of hyper aware of overwhelmed by.
And if you can just imagine that,
how important, crucial sanctuary is to the establishment of well-being and the idea of self-regulation, like emotional self-regulation.
