Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about...

 

 

- Bullying is often an expression of pain, so leading with compassion for your child is often your best entry point.

 

- How to readjust your goal, rather than just trying to shut down your child's behaviors, for a higher likelihood of getting through to them.

 

- Examples of real-life scenarios that middle school girls may be experiencing and how to navigate them.

 

- The most common reasons middle schoolers act this way, so you can help you identify what the root cause may be to help you get to the heart of the matter.

 

- Conversation starters you can use to prevent your child from getting defensive and shutting down.

 

- At some point, this moves beyond exploring your child’s feelings and these behaviors simply need to stop - when and how to transition to this point.
