Risk factors for maltreating our children are different in moms and dads
Join me on an eye-opening journey as we confront an issue that's often left in the shadows - parental child maltreatment, and the risks surrounding it. Promise me you won't shy away from this uncomfortable conversation, as we aim to shed light on the importance of emotional regulation. We're not pointing fingers here, but acknowledging the powerful role of our own emotions, and learning how to better regulate them to construct a secure and nurturing milieu for our children.
We're diving headfirst into a recent Italian study that highlights the specific dimensions of emotion dysregulation among parents, and how they can predict maltreatment. It's no secret dads tend to struggle in identifying their emotions, while moms often find themselves suppressing their emotions. Remember, it's okay to feel, and it's essential to express. So, here's to starting conversations, to promoting emotional awareness, and to creating environments where our children can thrive. Join me, won't you?
