Are you Inadvertently Shaming Your Toddler?
Allowing Your Toddler to Make Mistakes Without Feeling Shame
If you’ve ever spoken about your child in front of other adults as if they weren’t there or insisted your child share a favorite toy with another child, there’s a good chance you are.
As parents, we shame our children out of love, concern and, yes, power: by trying to assert who we think that child should be and how we think he should fit in the world, we inadvertently make our young children feel ashamed when they are at their most vulnerable. Most of us don’t even realize when we’re inflicting shame, that horrible feeling of embarrassment and self-hatred.
