We're not scared of actually having to
to set a limit if needed as well.
Yeah, so I think that it's because you recognize that it's not your problem to solve and that you're helping your children solve the problem.
So I find that I can have more
Distance, I'm still being loving and nurturing.
I'm not, you know, emotionally unavailable or something like this, but I just don't take it personally, their behavior.
Because often we get into a battle with our child when we start arguing with them and when we start punishing them or when we start bribing them and we're trying to solve the problem for them.
And in this way, we're giving them the tools to support them as they solve it themselves.
So we're not giving in to them, but we are supporting them.
And it might even mean like your child's melting down because they wanted ice cream.
And we can then like really support them.
Like you really wanted ice cream.
It doesn't mean that I go out to the shops and buy ice cream for them.
But it also doesn't mean that I say, Don't be silly, we're not getting ice cream now.
And I get really angry about it.
Instead, I'm just like, you really want ice cream?
I'm sorry that there's no ice cream.
We can write on the shopping list and maybe next time we're at the shops we can get some ice cream.
But you then will hold them, hug them as they calm down.
If they'd actually like hurled all the cushions across the room or destroyed something, then once they've calmed down, then we'd help them to make amends as well at the end.
