About this listen
Have you ever caught yourself saying "he's just like his father" or "she gets that from me"? That seemingly innocent comparison might be doing more harm than you realize.
Our conversation dives deep into the phenomenon of adult projection - how parents and teachers unconsciously assign their own personality traits, fears, and thinking patterns to children. This natural tendency serves as a bonding ritual but creates serious obstacles to truly understanding children as unique individuals with their own internal processes.
Through vulnerable personal stories, we explore how projection prevents developmental attunement and responsive relationships. This is for all of us in relationships. Join in!
