Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about...     1:40 - Unpacking whether our child is anxious about this experience, or if we might be projecting our own feelings onto the request for them to perform.   5:33 - What interventions can you use in the moment when someone asks your child to do something you're not sure they want to do.   9:26 - How to avoid fragilizing our kids in this world of gentle parenting.   12:17 - How can we respond when an adult asks our child to perform a social expectation, like giving a hug or answering their questions - whether they're 3 or 10.   15:40 - Deciphering how much we should protect our child from things that make them feel uncomfortable and how much are we should work to stretch them.   20:28 - At what age or developmental stage does it become about manners versus allowing them to listen to their internal drives?     ✨We want to hear from you!
