Ep. 211: Hard? Too Hard? For PARENTS!!!

The Baffling Behavior Show {Parenting after Trauma}

We talk a lot about hard very too hard for your kids (thanks Amanda Diekman for that hard vs. too hard language!).

But have you considered applying that concept to yourself?

This is intensive parenting! Far beyond when parenting is supposed to get less intensive, you’re still giving super-hero level scaffolding, supervision and co-regulation - and it’s a LOT!

In this episode, you’ll learn

• How to assess for when it’s just TOO hard- for YOU!
• The importance of making an owl-brain decision about things being too hard (or not)
• Ways to increase support at the same time as you lower demands for yourself

Resources mentioned in this podcast:

• Enabling vs. Low-Demand podcast
• Amanda Diekman - Low Demand Parenting on Instagram
