Conscious Parenting: “S.I.C.” of Curse Words? (and other fun triggering stuff)- Try this!
Spiritual FirestarterShow Notes
Holy @%&*... Received a question: A viewer's 7-year-old is teaching his 4-year-old brother awesome inappropriate stuff (curse words, middle fingers, guns, etc) that he is now teaching his preschool class...she is getting more and more triggered...what can we do??
A ("slightly controversial") 3 step process that has helped with my kid (not just for now but the long-run) Uncovering WHY it is so triggering as a parent, real-life ways to help get you out of that loop Super surprising research on "curse words" that help re-frame and shift our thinking which helps with conditioned triggers as well

I knew that feeling...I was stuck there for decades before healing, and it showed more often than I would like to admit. The PROCESS I wish someone would have taught me at my kid's age that I used to help my own inner child stop hating the world...
Someone said something so wildly inappropriate to me at a family party...holyyyy...

We've all been there as parents- your kid is doing something out in public (or with judgmental family) and you want so desperately to make it stop...
