Showing up and being present for our kids

Printable .pdf from Dr. Tina Payne Bryson, PhD ・ The Center for Connection

Dr. Bryson reminds us:

“In times of good, but especially in times of bad, what your kids need most from you in order to be resilient and in order to weather difficulty, is you. Imperfect you. Flawed you. Sometimes ‘falling apart’ you.”

“Model and be intentional about the skills you’re teaching—be it empathy, regulation, resilience, problem-solving, asking for help, insight, or how to show up for others.”
