#4: The 5 Things No Child Should Hear From Their Parents

In last week’s podcast, we were reminded of the wonderful things we can say to our children to build them up, make them feel amazing, grow their resilience, and improve family life.

This week, we’re turning the tables and looking at some of those things we say to our kids in the heat of the moment – or because we don’t know any better – that can really hurt them.

In this podcast, I’ll share 5 things our children need to hear from us as little as possible – or maybe even NEVER.
