When Kids Say "No"

Image Source

There are many ways for parents to teach their children to be safe in the world, and to cultivate confidence, empowerment and resiliency.

This article in the Huffington Post illustrates one of those ways: Allowing and respecting our kids when they say ‘no’ to things that make them feel uncomfortable or scared.

Womencare is offering a workshop this Sunday, April 6th, for moms who are survivors of childhood abuse, trauma and/or neglect. Teaching safety without fear and offering a way of parenting that fosters the child’s feelings, voice and setting of boundaries are some of the topics we will be exploring.
