Helicopter parents micromanage what their kids eat, how they study, who they hang out with, and what they do in their spare time. Ja bērns jūs ignorē vai reti klausa jūsu lūgumiem, viņš bez vārdiem cenšas pateikt, ka jūsu attiecībām ir nepieciešamas papildu rūpes un mīlestība. This book is for any parent who has ever struggled under the substantial weight of caregiving–which is to say, all of us.

Becky introduces the Good Inside Toolbox, which consists of six tools that parents can use in any situation to help their kids feel seen, heard, and understood. We have now spent at least 90 minutes of the day just hashing over our emotions related to this birthday party, plus the emotional residue of all the unpleasantness has tainted the entire day.

So not only did the parent have to set the table, they didn’t get to prep the food either because they spent 15 minutes on a futile bonding exercise. In this way, the good-inside method isn’t about honoring feelings and giving children whatever they want; it’s about honoring feelings and holding boundaries.

Book Summary: Good Inside by Becky Kennedy Book Summary: Good Inside by Becky Kennedy

Ja pievēršamies galvenokārt uzvedībai, mēs zaudējam iespēju palīdzēt saviem bērniem attīstīt prasmes, kā arī palaižam garām iespēju raudzīties uz saviem bērniem kā uz cilvēkiem, nevis uzvedību kopumā. Dzīvesspēka stiprināšana nozīmē attīstīt spēju izturēt grūtības, neatkāpties sarežģītā, izaicinošā dzīves brīdī, atrast pamatu zem kājām un labo pat tad, ja trūkst pierādījumu par to, ka gaidāmi panākumi. I am not convinced that children will really appreciate this, long-term, or that it will create children who are socially aware. It’s good for a child to be able to continue to work even in the midst of a certain amount of frustration.

Becky Kennedy on her weekly podcast, as she takes on tough parenting questions and delivers actionable guidance—all in short episodes, because we know time is hard to find as a parent. I recommend to every caretaker as well as anyone who wants to better support children and/or caretakers.
