One “must” for this week

“The single most important parenting (and not only) strategy ” by Becky Kennedy.

Repair is the key parenting strategy that also applies to any meaningful relationship. It involves returning to the moment of disconnection, taking responsibility for our behavior, and acknowledging its impact on others.

We can replace self-blame with safety, connection, and love by repairing.

Repairing with ourselves (also important) and the people who matter to us can have a lifelong impact and set the stage for healthy relationship patterns.
