Cultivating a Deep Connection With Our Children
May 18, 2021“You need to develop a sense of curiosity about your child, and you cannot get sucked up into the emotions of what’s going on.”
On this episode of the 3D Parent Podcast, I want to go deep in discussing deep connection with your children. First we’ll look at a couple of studies regarding the different types of connection that can be used to classify young children. Then we’ll discuss in depth the different stages of attachment and what stage looks like.
Before the conclusion of the episode, I will also identify some roadblocks for you that are common challenges that come up for parents in trying to establish a connection with their child. Finally, I will give you some tips so you can start incorporating connection at every attachment stage to help you reach your goal as a parent as your child’s secret keeper.
