Emotional education

Arguing with the children, who has not gone through these situations? These points of disagreement, although we do not like them and they are unpleasant many times, can also be points of union, when an apology is issued.

Do you have the feeling that your child does not stop still, as if he had an engine inside? What is very sensitive to its environment? Or, what does it cost you to self-regulate behaviorally and emotionally?

Among the many things that parents can do to build our children's trust in us is to always speak honestly to them; In other words, not promising things that we know we are not going to fulfill and of course, never lying to them, even if we are living a difficult time and we believe that hiding the truth from them will benefit them.

Everyone, both adults and children and adolescents, will have to face different losses of loved ones, throughout our lives. The death of a loved one has an undeniable impact on each one of us, and in the face of a loss of this kind, we begin a grieving process.

Self-esteem is defined as the value we make of ourselves, but it goes much further; It also encompasses the way we treat, admire and love each other. It encompasses perceptions, beliefs, thoughts, behaviors, and attitudes.

It is essential that parents give our children the freedom to act autonomously, even at the risk that they may make mistakes (as we all make mistakes). But making mistakes is not a negative thing, quite the opposite: it is a wonderful opportunity to learn and continue to grow as people.
