I am just so appreciative of Lynn’s podcast. At a time when there is so much to think about, her clear, succinct and professional guidance has helped me to understand why my children are behaving certain ways and most importantly, what to do about it. For example, early on she emphasized the need to insert silliness into our family, and this has been a steadfast pillar that has helped me to maintain a sense of safety for my youngest child (if mom is being silly ~ things MUST be OK). On the other hand, she also gives clear guidance and even specific phrases for how to talk to my kids and how to help them tolerate the discomfort of uncertainty ~ a skill that will serve them the rest of their lives. She also gives good guidance on how to balance the need for structure/need for flexibility that is especially difficult right now. Finally, Lynn's tone is collaborative and supportive. There is no parent-shaming ~ just compassionate, wise advice that inspires me to do the hard work of being a good parent.
