Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- When I ask my kid about their day I get one-word answers, and I realize I only ever ask about homework and chores
- Every conversation with my kid about their behavior turns into me laying down the law and them digging in, and I want a way to actually talk it through together
- I tell my kid "good job" all day and it doesn’t seem to change anything
- My kid has started hiding mistakes and bracing like they’re in trouble before I’ve even said anything, and I think it’s because my first reaction to a spill or a broken thing is always the accusation
- My child can’t seem to name what they’re feeling
