In this episode, I discuss how important it is to step into being the pack leader of your family in terms of your “other” kid’s overall mental health and wellness. If you have a strong-willed kiddo hijacking your household, this episode is just for you!
Topics covered:
- Dr. Kristin Neff and empathic resonance
- Imbalance of power
- Pack leadership
- “Victim first” sibling fighting parenting tool when violence is present
- Focus on the healing, not the hurting
- Focus on the “other” kid in a proactive way through noticing PET time
- Be the soft place to land for your “other” child
- If you’re allowing your strong-willed kid to hijack your household, you’re doing everyone in the family a disservice – and you all suffer. The strong-willed kid, the “other” kid, you…your marriage. All of you suffer. Pack leadership training is essential
