10 Reasons Why Crying Is Good

10 Reasons Why Crying Is Good

I truly believe crying is the cure. Children regularly need to release their pent-up feelings. Crying is how they get back to balance. They need to release the “bad” to make room for the “good”. And as we will see for ourselves when we are courageous enough to let their feelings be and patiently allow for the heeling release to pass.

Calm, peacefulness, cooperation and wellbeing always follows.
It’s like their system is reset, what triggered the crying is no usually no longer an issue and they simply move on.

When I discovered Respectful Parenting, I jumped in head first. I devoured every book on the subject, read every article I could find, and analysed each finding. I wanted to learn all of it. 

And, honestly, it’s still an ongoing obsession. As my kids develop and their needs change, I continue to learn and grow.

And as that happens, I’ll continue to take you on that journey with me, giving you all the tools to make this lifestyle work for your family.

Can you imagine enjoying your coffee in peace, with no  tiny hands pulling at your pant legs or little voices demanding your immediate attention?

Nope, it’s not too good to be true. Setting personal boundaries is just as important as setting the non-negotiable boundaries that you set around your children’s safety. 

Both because it teaches your children the importance of setting personal boundaries in their own life and because, well, you’ll be able to enjoy your coffee in peace. Among many other things. 

If this is something you struggle with, I’ve got an e-book for you to help you feel much more comfortable setting these boundaries.
