Raising Resilient Kids: Alane's Office Hours

Resilient youth learn to take the lead in their lives. Parenting strategies for supporting resilience might surprise you. Move over Gift of Failure and make room for noticing and honoring truth while also fostering brave space for the challenging times.

"Resilience – capacities and inner resources to cope quickly and effectively with any crisis or distress - is always needed ... Especially in times of rapid change and uncertainty, skills of resilience are needed more than ever. We [and our youth] need to learn the strategies and deepen the underlying practices that allow us to cope with any disappointment, any difficulty, and any disaster. And to learn that we can." - Linda Graham, LMFT

Are we serving our sensitive or anxious children when we are so very careful not to upset them? Where should we draw a line in the sand? One parent says "straighten up and fly right!" and another parent protects that same child, making sure the world doesn't overwhelm them...WHO IS RIGHT?

Current research tells us that parents underestimate their teens’ stress levels as compared to youth self report, and tweens are proving themselves to be less effective at navigating the world than anytime in history. How do we support the strengths of diverse and sensitive youth while also honoring their challenges? How do we raise resilient youth? Alane has answers and so do you!
