Learning About Conflict From Different Perspectives: A Glimpse Into A Real-Life Drama From My Own Family | Ep. 31
“Sometimes I think kids imagine that grown-ups have it all together. And though many of us have worked hard to deliver the best version of ourselves out into the world, many of us grown-ups are still growing and still trying to understand what’s underneath our own behavior, while trying at the same time to be there for our kids while they develop their own best versions of themselves.
And sometimes this can get messy, especially when us grown-ups have our moments, those moments when our best selves get lost underneath our own upsets.
So I thought it might be useful to share a family drama of my own, so anyone of any age can get a glimpse of what happens when three people—me, my son, and my husband—are all having difficulty seeing each other’s concerns in the heat of a moment.”
