About this listen
In this episode of Just One Thing For Parents, Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist Jon Goldin discusses the crucial role of boundaries in children's development. He emphasizes that consistent, predictable boundaries provide psychological safety and promote secure attachment. John likens teenage boundaries to flexible rubber tires, allowing some give while maintaining stability.
The conversation covers challenges parents face in setting boundaries, including generational changes and social media influences. John and Bettina stress the importance of parental unity in boundary-setting, even in separated families. They explore the balance between kindness and strictness, the significance of emotional boundaries, and practical advice on issues like social media use and sleep routines. Please have a listen.
This is a really important and often tricky topic for parents.
