About this episode

Your child is not trying to manipulate you. But wow, does it feel like it sometimes! In this episode, we get real about a specific behavior that triggers both of us, and honestly? We are still figuring out how to handle it in the moment. This is one of those conversations where we are not coming to you with all the answers. We are coming to you with the vulnerable truth, because sometimes the most helpful thing is knowing you are not the only one white knuckling it through a Tuesday afternoon. ---- If you have questions, stories, or topics you’d like us to talk through, you can reach out to us at: hello@fiercelygentleparenting.com You can also follow along on social at @fiercelygentleparenting ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠fiercelygentleparenting.com⁠⁠⁠
