To those of you parenting without a clear map of what secure parenting looks and feels like, I see you. To those of you parenting without a supportive partner or without a partner at all, I see you. To those of you parenting with a suitcase full to the brim with trauma or anxiety or depression, I see you. To those of you parenting in contexts where you and your children are unsafe and you have to teach them about scary realities you wish they never had to face, I see you. To those of you parenting thru poverty and the three jobs you are working to try to left your kids out of it, I see you. To those of you parenting thru loss or illness, and the thousands of tentacles that come with those realities, I see you. This is hard. Hang in there, what you’re doing is truly heroic. Love on. 💛Comment SECURE to get an order link for my parenting book, Raising Securely Attached Kids, to give you more insight into what you can be doing to give your kids the gift of a secure connection with you. 💛
