The Kind Parenting Company - Making Sense Of Bad Behaviour

Making Sense Of Bad Behaviour

The Kind Parenting Company

play

01/30/22 • 33 min

Chrissie Davies, a.k.a The Child Charmer joins Jacquie this week to talk about challenging behaviours in our kids.


Chrissie is an expert when it comes to decoding disruptive behaviours, having enjoyed a successful career as an Educator in specialist settings, where her primary role was to support kids displaying extreme behavioural challenges. Through her work, she helps families use evidence-based strategies, grounded in the latest neuroscience, to decode children’s tricky behaviour and support them in growing through their challenges.


In this episode, Jacquie & Chrissie discuss;

  • why Chrissie believes that ALL behaviour is communication (& what kids are trying to tell us)
  • an important shift from traditional parenting methods where discipline is ‘control’ to instead using it to empower our children
  • how to identify the ’teachable’ moments with our kids (& those that aren’t!)
  • how our own self-care plays into our kids challenging behaviours

This is an episode for any parents, caregivers or educators who are raising/working with children aged 12 months and above.

The ideas discussed might just change how you view ‘bad behaviour’ forever.

Mum Guilt, Losing Your Shit And More

The Kind Parenting Company

play

01/09/22 • 31 min

A question I have consistently been asked over my years on social media is ‘do I ever lose my cool with the kids?’ and the answer to that is yes. This is, and always will be The Kind Parenting Company, not the Perfect Parenting Company. We all have moments when we parent in ways that we may not be particularly proud of, but this episode walks you through how to take those moments of parenthood that we’ve all experienced, and dives deep into how to learn from them and why.


Today’s episode is a replay from The Frae Podcast, and is just as relevant for parents today as it was in 2019! This episode covers:

  • Why as parents we all lose our shit sometimes
  • Ways to cope when you feel tested in parenting
  • The importance of having a ‘plan’ for those challenging moments as a parent
  • What mum guilt really is and how to work through this emotion
  • Why you should reflect on ALL the things you do as a parent (not just the negative)
  • Why we should aim to parent without our ego invested in our children
  • How role modelling positive behaviours is different from taking ownership of them
  • Why you need multiple sources of happiness to be the best parent you can be
