Description
“Your parents couldn’t take care of you” just isn’t enough. I’ve worked with hundreds of adopted kids and thousands of adoptive parents…and most important, I listen very very very closely to adoptees.
Your adopted child’s story is just that…THEIR story. There are some parts of it that are hard. Maybe even REALLY hard. No one wants to talk to their kids about this stuff.
But we have to. And you can. You just need a little support, and maybe a few scripts. No worries- I’ve got you :)
I also study neuroscience pretty obsessively- and that’s led me to two conclusions.
Kids need us to talk about the bad things that happened to them because they were there- whether they have conscious memories of the experience or not, they have memories because they were there (this is about memory science)
Kids need an honest, transparent, and authentic story about their lives (this is about attachment science)
This two-hour webinar will explore:
- Why it’s important for children to know the truth about their life story
- The importance of attunement and connection when sharing hard stories
- Specific tools and language for discussing these difficult topics with children
Yup- language for talking to your children about abuse (including sexual abuse), mental illness, substance abuse, rape, and abandonment (plus more).
Included:
* Video recording of this webinar
* 20 page e-book
