#033 When a child favours one parent or caregiver

It can be upsetting to deal with a child who pushes you away or prefers one parent over another.

Maybe your child has a meltdown when it's their Dad's turn to put them to bed so you end up doing bedtime every night just to keep the peace.

Or your child is in great form all day at school or childcare but their behaviour becomes unmanageable as soon as you walk through the door.

Perhaps you are a step-parent and nothing you do is good enough, you are rejected at every turn.

In this episode I talk about:

• The essential ingredients to build a close, trusting relationship with your child
• The importance of attuning to a child's internal world
• How to decode a child's behaviour to see the emotions behind the behaviour
• Five practical tools to help them feel your love for them
• How to take care of your own feelings so you can parent your child
