✨ “When a child can’t calm down, they need connection and comfort, not criticism and control.” 💛

Ever wonder why your child’s big feelings seem to get even BIGGER when you tell them to “just stop” or “calm down”? 🧠💥

That’s because a dysregulated brain can’t hear logic — it needs safety first. 🫂
Children aren’t giving us a hard time. They’re having a hard time.

Imagine if every meltdown was met with a soft landing instead of shame.
Imagine if every “tantrum” was treated as a moment to show unconditional love, instead of a moment for punishment. 🌱

🫶 Your calm is their safe place.
🤝 Your empathy is their roadmap back to regulation.
❤️ Your presence is more powerful than any lecture.

When your child is losing it, try this instead:
✨ Sit close.
✨ Offer a gentle touch.
✨ Keep your voice low and warm.
✨ Say: “I’m here. I know this is hard. I’ll help you.”

The goal isn’t to control their emotions, but to connect through them, so they learn to calm themselves someday — because they felt what it was like to be calmed by you. 💗

📣 Parenting truth:
✅ Kids learn emotional regulation not by being told to calm down — but by being calmed down by us.

Traumatic events affect many more people than those directly exposed: witnesses, loved ones, rescue personnel, people who identify with a particular characteristic of the event, and helpers, including psychotherapists who help their clients recover from traumatic events.Symptoms of vicarious trauma....

Si te gustan las mujeres nalgonas, consíguete una novia nalgona, si te gustan las mujeres delgadas, consíguete una novia delgada, si te gustan las mujeres de busto grande, consíguete una novia de busto grande, no está mal ir detrás de lo que te gusta, lo que quieres, lo que está mal es tener de pareja una mujer que no te gusta y hacerla sentir fea, insuficiente, no está bien que tengas novia y voltees a ver a otras, le escribas a otras, busques a otras, si tú novia no te parece la mujer más hermosa de este mundo, déjala libre, deja que ella encuentre a un hombre que vea todo lo que no pudiste ver.
Deja de ser egoísta.✌️

💜🥹
They might not always listen to what we *say*... but they’re always watching what we do 💯

From how we talk about ourselves to how we handle hard days, our kids are soaking it all in.

And not saying that to add any pressure (you’re doing amazing), but just a gentle reminder that even the small stuff is shaping who they become 🙏🏻

We don’t have to be perfect, we just have to be aware and willing to grow right alongside them 💜
