Listen "38. What is Fear Based Parenting?"
Episode Synopsis
Have you ever found yourself reacting out of fear in your parenting? Whether it’s fear of failing, fear of judgment, or fear that your child’s behavior means you’re doing it wrong — you’re not alone. But here’s the truth: God didn’t give us a spirit of fear.In this episode, we’re unpacking what fear-based parenting looks like and how it can lead to disconnection, shame, or control — instead of teaching and transformation.You’ll learn how to shift from reacting in fear to responding with confidence through three powerful Positive Discipline tools: 1. Pause and Pray — Take a breath and invite God in before you respond. 2. Connect Before You Correct — Build emotional safety first so your teaching can land. 3. Be Firm and Kind — Set respectful, clear boundaries without shame or punishment.🕊️ Key Scripture:“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” — 2 Timothy 1:7Want to learn more about how your child's brain is growing so you can set appropriate expectations and boundaries?
