Episode 2869: Dr. Laura Markham explains how daily reconnection with your child is essential to maintaining strong emotional bonds and effective parenting. Drawing on insights from attachment theory and relationship research, she shares practical strategies to strengthen your connection, even in the face of everyday distractions and separations, so that your child continues to feel secure, supported, and emotionally attuned. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.ahaparenting.com/read/staying-connected Quotes to ponder: "All parents need to repeatedly reconnect with their children, just to repair the daily erosion created by life’s normal separations and distractions." "Effective parenting is almost impossible until the positive connection with your child has been re-established, so think of this as preventive maintenance, before there’s a problem." "Forget about teaching or directing or rushing your kid to the next item on the schedule. None of those are quality time."
