Avsnitt 301: Why Your Kids Need to See You Struggle (Modeling Hard Things) Oh Crap with Jamie Spela Dela
In this episode, I sit down with Jose to talk about something we don’t discuss enough: Your kids need to see you struggle. Not fall apart.Not spiral.Not dump your emotional processing onto them. But struggle. We talk about: Why shielding kids from every difficulty backfiresThe difference between modeling resilience and trauma-dumpingHow to let kids see you try (even when you fail)Why “protecting” them from stress can weaken themWhat emotional regulation actually looks like in real timeThe power of repair and ownershipWhy competence is built through frictionMasculinity, leadership, and modeling calm under pressureHow parents unconsciously outsource resilience to school and sportsWhy modern comfort culture is robbing kids of growth This conversation isn’t about being dramatic.It’s about being human in front of your children. Kids don’t need perfect parents.They need to see adults doing hard things — and surviving them. If you want resilient kids, they need to watch you build resilience first. 👉 Sign up for my newsletter Jamie's Instagram Oh Crap! Cafe Parenting Community Oh Crap! Potty Training Oh Crap!
