Teaching Humanity Remotely with Dr. Mindy Shaw
Kids & Family:Education for Kids
In this episode, Dr. Shaw tackles a fascinating yet not uncommon scenario... she discusses what to do when children and their parents are both in shared circles of friends but then the children drift apart... how should the parents handle that situation especially if they may still want to preserve their quality relationship. Sometimes there are reasons to continue to cultivate relationships that aren't working well, and that can be modeled. Of course, children should never be put in the situation where they are being hurt emotionally or otherwise, but often the drifting of a relationship is simply part of the ebb and flow of life. Dynamics do change, but there will always be an opportunity to have different needs met in different kinds of relationships. When things get hard, it's often useful and fulfilling to not walk away... you can allow for the differences and celebrate the learning lessons from those differences.
