Episode “You’re Mad At Me” and Other Big Feelings
On this episode: first, a quick update about our discussions on grades. TL;DR: We hear you, and we’re already working on ways to do better.
Then: Lucy, Elizabeth and Jamilah help a listener who wrote in looking for advice on a 7-year-old’s big feelings. This girl is showing some signs of negative self-talk, catastrophic thinking, and anxiety. How can her parents help de-escalate… and is it time to revisit therapy?
We’ll also debrief on our week in parenting with a round of triumphs and fails, including stories about magnet schools, sibling love, and standing on the table.
