Listen "“I Want My Mommy”: Summer Playback Series – 358"
Episode Synopsis
This year, Dalia went straight from school to camp with no break, and the stress of that transition came out in some pretty big emotions.
Two nights before she left, she came into my room crying, saying how much she was going to miss me and didn’t want to go.
Hearing her say those words tugged at every protective instinct I have.
So I pressed play on this old episode to remind myself exactly why giving her this experience is so important — and how to stay steady, even when her anxiety made me question whether I was doing the right thing.
If you’ve ever struggled when your child feels anxious or says “I want my mommy!” (whether they’re four or twenty-four), this replay will help you trust their resilience (and yours!) and keep the long view in mind.
