This month, we’re diving into the sacredness of multi-generational family time. After returning from a vacation with 20 relatives—ranging from babies to grandparents—I’m reflecting on why these connections matter so much for our kids and for us as parents.We’ll talk about how spending time with multiple generations helps kids develop empathy, responsibility, and self-worth (yes, even when they complain). Plus, I share why parenting wasn’t meant to be a solo act and how leaning on a larger community—whether it’s relatives or chosen family—can help us stay calm and grounded.Whether you’re heading into a big ol’ family gathering this holiday season or leaning on a community you’ve recently built, know this: those multi-generational connections aren’t just a “nice-to-have.” They’re a lifeline for our sanity and our kids’ growth.So before you spend your year-end bonus on enough wine to block out the unsolicited parenting advice from Aunt Sally, take a deep breath and remind yourself to embrace the messiness and magic of extended family. Your village may not be perfect, but they’re good enough.To get Carley’s free video teaching you 4 play therapy techniques you can use TODAY to calm your emotional child and bring joy and freedom back to family life click here!http://www.paceparent.com/play And follow her @CarleyCounsels on FB & IG!
