@instituteofchildpsych: For context, Hugh Jackman was sharing how, when anxious, he would just close up, and not share about it with his kids. He never realized before how his kids might think he was upset with them because he never explained to them what he was going through. We often keep our worries to ourselves, but it can make our kids feel confused. What if we opened up more? Shared what’s going on in a way they understand. It doesn’t mean dumping all our problems on them, but letting them know we’re stressed or anxious and it’s not their fault. Because truly, they can sense when something’s off. Being honest builds trust and shows it’s okay to talk about feelings and struggles. Sharing our losses teaches them resilience and that it’s okay to fail—it’s how we get back up that matters. How do you handle stress and setbacks around your kids? 💜 #parentingtips #parenting #consciousparenting #MentalHealth #childdevelopment
