4. Do you pendulum parent?

Do others often say to you:  "He's playing you?" "She's so ruling the roost" "You would have never been getting away with doing that" in response to how you approach your children when they're having a difficult emotion that's causing them to behave in ways that aren't ideal?  Then you might be engaged in 'Pendulum parenting' - an never ending cycle of responding to the parenting of our past - or how we parented yesterday.  In this episode I give you a tool for spotting whether you pendulum parent.  Why we do - and how we can begin the journey of a more balanced approach.  To get weekly tips and parenting inspiration sent straight to your inbox - head over to www.louise-brooks.com to sign up for my weekly newsletter You can follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parentingsuccesscoaching/ And on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/
