If you have a
young child between, say, 5 and 11, you've probably heard something
shocking come out of their mouth like "I hate my life", or "I wish
I were never born". In this episode of the podcast, I talk about
how most parents respond in one of three ways. Then I discuss how
to discover the emotion behind what they are saying and why that is
the most important step in dealing with this. Finally, I give you a
play therapy based way to respond to this that diffuses the
emotions and preserves the relationship with your child.
