Only when you have wrong expectations.
It is so easy to know what is right action but sometimes so hard to do it.
Ayden is having rough morning. Well he was having good morning until we took him to his soccer match. He got shy and didn’t want to play. I spend 45 minutes encouraging him. Getting frustrated. Getting embarrassed. Getting angry.
I wanted to leave.
I don’t know what is right behavior. What should have I done. Is it too much to expect your child to do what they wanted to do. If you don’t push your child will they never get out of their comfort zone and never grow. If you push too much will that cause them unnecessary anxiety when they will naturally grow up at their own pace.
Is it okay to punish your child who experienced anxiety through no fault of their own.
I have read so many books on parenting, they all have answers to these questions. Yet, I cannot remember anything when in the middle of needing it.
