We share five practical ways to be emotionally available with your kids and your partner, based on what we see repeatedly in work with teens and couples. The goal is less turbulence at home by replacing fixing and defensiveness with listening, steadiness, and repair.
• listening before offering solutions so kids and partners feel heard
• making room for feelings while still limiting harmful behaviour
• giving undivided attention and taking interest in small things
• building trust early so teens bring bigger problems to us
• managing our reaction so honesty does not get punished
• repairing quickly after we snap or get it wrong
• apologising without adding “but” and cancelling the apology
• using reminders to follow through on repair conversations
Let me know what you think. I am on all of the social medias under Doc David.
