Respectful Parenting: Janet Lansbury Unruffled

When Our Kids Are Scared

How can we help our kids overcome their fears? Most of us have the instinct to provide comfort with messages like "don't worry, you're safe, it will be alright." In this episode, Janet explains why our children often need more than our reassurance, even when their fears seem unreasonable or overblown. The key: validating and encouraging each child's intuitive process. Janet provides details by responding to notes from three families who have concerns about their children's seemingly irrational fears.Learn more about Janet's "No Bad Kids Master Course" at: <a href="http://www.nobadkidscourse.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">NoBadKidsCourse.com</a>.Her best-selling books <a href="https://amzn.to/44hmBg7" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">“No Bad Kids: Toddler Discipline without Shame”</a> and <a href="https://amzn.to/46lyJP1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">"Elevating Child Care: A Guide to Respectful Parenting"</a> are available in all formats at Amazon, Apple, Barnes &amp; Noble, Google Play, and free at Audible (<a href="https://adbl.co/2OBVztZ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://adbl.co/2OBVztZ</a>) with a trial subscription.Please support our sponsors and take advantage of their special offers.
