Parent the Child You Have, Not the Child You Were


”I’m going to do the opposite of everything my parents did.”

Your childhood memories can have a profound impact on how you interact with, parent, and bond with your children. And while your actions may come from a loving place, when you parent through your past, you unknowingly make parenting decisions that attempt to satisfy your own unmet childhood needs, rather than tuning into what your child needs right now.

In Parent the Child You Have, Not the Child You Were, expert family therapist Dr. Brie Turns-Coe introduces the tools you need to begin parenting in the present – allowing you to rebuild the parent-child relationship and develop a deeper connection with your child that allows them to thrive.
