Description:

In today’s episode Dr. Vanessa Lapointe, registered psychologist, joins us to discuss aggressive behavior in children and how to mediate it. We discuss how to be curious about your child’s behavior – zooming out can be informative about why your child is being aggressive. Dr. Lapointe answers important questions like: How do parents play a part in their child’s aggressive behavior? Should you feel guilty when your child acts out? How can aggressive play be beneficial to your child’s development?

Dr. Lapointe explains that how we were parented as children influences how we parent our own children. She talks about how parenting couples need to embody both firmness and kindness to maintain balance within the home. We also touch on the idea of the “good enough parent” and what that could look like.

Lastly, we chat about how screentime and friend groups can play into aggressiveness and how to draw your children back to you while still letting them experience life.
