PSP 249 How to Lovingly Detach from Our Kids Anxiety or OCD
Listen now
Description
Kids with anxiety or OCD need an anchor. They need us to be a rock that helps ground them through the chaos. Unfortunately we cannot do that when we are so immersed in their struggles that we are drowning right along with them. In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I talk about learning how to lovingly detach from our child’s anxiety or OCD. I discuss how this is not about removing our love or ignoring our children’s problems, it’s just the opposite. I walk through the steps needed to work on loving detachment and become an anchor for our kids. The AT Parenting Community is open for a few days and closes on Feb 17, 2022.
